What about external storage (e.g. USB 2.0 flash drive) for the repo? This
way there is one repo, and both hosts access it locally. Just unmount/unplug
it from the (beautiful frosted aluminum) G5 and plug it into your Powerbook
when you need to. To backup I'd just periodically create a .dmg of the storage
device and place it on a volume on the G5 that is backed up regularly and perform
an 'svnadmin hotcopy' also.

The PQI 1Gbyte iStick comes to mind :

The only drawback of the PQI iStick is that they are easily misplaced
(they are about the size of two pennies side by side).
