It's two-way.

It's my archive, so of course I control what goes into it (the same way you'd
control any files on unix).  Inter-archive merging in arch is usually `pull'
based, so if I wanted to merge changes from someone elses branch, I'd have to
explicitly do so -- in a way it's similar to applying patches someone sends
to the mailing list, just more convenient and with better record-keeping.

The remote mirrors on non-GNU machines, OTOH, _are_ just mirrors; of course
now that everything's signed I'd have no qualms about using them to restore
the master fencepost copy if something horrible happened.
