Do multiple svnserve instances collide?

Hi All,

My intention is to set up a Subversion repository for a couple of
users working at different desktops (btw in a Windows environment).
Due to company policy, I cannot launch Apache or svnserve on a server
machine.

I thought of the following. The repo is on a network drive, each user
runs svnserve on his/her own desktop to access the repo via "svn://".
(Then each user can run svnserve as "SvnUser" who has the exclusive
rights for the repo.) Is this a reasonable idea? What I'm afraid of
is that simultaneous check-ins might lead to a broken repo.

An alternative would be "file://" access; that's quite awkward because
of the user rights. On the other hand, if simultaneous svnserve
copies may conflict with each other than simultaneous "file://" should
not be safe, either...

I would appreciate any kind of hint and help.
Gabor
