           Sets an arc configuration option.
 
           Options are either user (apply to all arc commands you invoke
           from the current user) or local (apply only to the current working
           copy). By default, user configuration is written. Use __--local__
           to write local configuration.
 
           User values are written to '~/.arcrc' on Linux and Mac OS X, and an
           undisclosed location on Windows. Local values are written to an arc
           directory under either .git, .hg, or .svn as appropriate.
