I'd throw in an additional .arch dir as that is the Unix standard.
Further: It might be that I misunderstood the arch naming but '{deltas}' 
seems wrong to me when not used as a top-level dir; so make it a ,, dir.

So: $HOME/.arch/,,archive-deltas

You mean that you do a get (checkout) to that location? That seems wrong 
since I doubt the user will want to work there; if only because his IDE 
probably has a different default location.
What I do in my tool is that a file-dialog is shown and the location is 
remembered so the next time a get is done it will be the default the user 
will see.
In other words; you ask the user.
