I haven't done that (log message comments have been enough so far), but
I suppose you could use svnmerge.py to merge between the host branches
(but try to make one the "master" so you don't have too many merges in
too many directions), or use mucc to copy stuff between host branches.

file=etc/fstab
source=${REPO}/hosts/host2 rev=123
target=${REPO}/hosts/host3
mucc \
    rm ${target}/${file} \
    cp ${rev} ${source}/${file} ${target}/${file}
