       "paths"
       -------
   
-      Assigns symbolic names to repositories. The left side is the symbolic
-      name, and the right gives the directory or URL that is the location of the
-      repository. Default paths can be declared by setting the following
-      entries.
+      Assigns symbolic names and behavior to repositories.
+  
+      Options are symbolic names defining the URL or directory that is the
+      location of the repository. Example:
+  
+        [paths]
+        my_server = https://example.com/my_repo
+        local_path = /home/me/repo
+  
+      These symbolic names can be used from the command line. To pull from
+      "my_server": "hg pull my_server". To push to "local_path": "hg push
+      local_path".
+  
+      Options containing colons (":") denote sub-options that can influence
+      behavior for that specific path. Example:
+  
+        [paths]
+        my_server = https://example.com/my_path
+        my_server:pushurl = ssh://example.com/my_path
+  
+      The following sub-options can be defined:
+  
+      "pushurl"
+         The URL to use for push operations. If not defined, the location
+         defined by the path's main entry is used.
+  
+      The following special named paths exist:
   
       "default"
-          Directory or URL to use when pulling if no source is specified.
-          (default: repository from which the current repository was cloned)
+         The URL or directory to use when no source or remote is specified.
+  
+         "hg clone" will automatically define this path to the location the
+         repository was cloned from.
   
       "default-push"
-          Optional. Directory or URL to use when pushing if no destination is
-          specified.
-  
-      Custom paths can be defined by assigning the path to a name that later can
-      be used from the command line. Example:
-  
-        [paths]
-        my_path = http://example.com/path
-  
-      To push to the path defined in "my_path" run the command:
-  
-        hg push my_path
+         (deprecated) The URL or directory for the default "hg push" location.
+         "default:pushurl" should be used instead.
