Why are you trying to create so much work for yourself? :-)

Just run a real server process on the machine which contains the
repository. If apache is too big for you, use an svnserve daemon
instead.

The reason we have servers is so that you don't have to worry about
this kind of thing... and to allow concurrent accesses. Trying to add
a 'lockfile' to file:/// access is a poor reinvention of a wheel, and
won't even give you concurrency. With a real server process,
repository readers are *never* blocked, and writers are almost never
blocked.
