No, check the offlineimap.conf file
https://github.com/OfflineIMAP/offlineimap/blob/master/offlineimap.conf#L232
Each account is defined by two repositories, one called
"localrepository" and the other "remoterepository".
What I meant is that one value of a repository can't be used in another
account definition. So, it is uniq.
So, saying "same goes with repos" does not makes sense. UNLESS you're
talking about the settings *IN* a repository section, which is something
sightly different! :-)
