Dump and load should work fine unless you are committing directly to
both repositories. In that case, the workability of the dump/load
method will be strictly determined by the types of operations you do
on each repository, and how close you keep them in sync.

Of course, you could always use a more traditional method -- patches.

Have each repository setup with a post-commit hook that writes the
diffs for that commit out to a file (like the commit-email.pl that we
use on svn.collab.net). Then, when you need to sync, you apply the
changes from, say, your laptop's repos to your desktop's working copy,
and commit them up (and vice-versa).
