Sounds to me like you need some second identity for each repository - not the
subversion-client-UUID, but another real-repository-UUID :-)

How about a revprop on r0? Seems to be the easiest, and most compatible, place
for that.

Set it if it doesn't exist; then query the other repository; if it's the same
there, it's the same repository.
