Not sure this is a very well documented feature, but I use this at home:

target-refix: &target "maildir:///home/anarcat/Maildir/.feeds."
feeds:
- name: Ikiwiki recent changes
  url: http://ikiwiki.info/recentchanges/index.rss
  target: [ *target, 'releases' ]
- name: Ikiwiki-hosting RecentChanges
  url: http://ikiwiki-hosting.branchable.com/recentchanges/index.rss
  target: [ *target, 'releases' ]

that avoids repeating the target configuration. note the typo in
"target-prefix": i don't quite understand why, but it works here.

This is also documented in the sample configuration file, does that
answer your requirement?

A.

PS: btw, gna.org is dead now, so it's good the report was copied here.
