One way to do that is to check the current repository size before a
commit and reject it if the repo is to big. Here's a very simple
pre-commit hook script that shows the idea:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
#!/bin/sh

umask 002

repo=$1
txn=$2
PATH='/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin'
MAX_SIZE=104857600
repo_size=`du -s $repo | cut -f 1`

if [ $repo_size -ge $MAX_SIZE ]; then
  echo "Repositroy $repo has exceeded maximum size: $MAX_SIZE" 1>&2
  exit 1
fi
