Why do you want to have two repositories?

I recommend you use separate repositories only for concepts which
really are separate from one another. For example, I have a
repository for my software source code, and another repository for my
music.

I recommend you have just a single repository, served from a machine
that's accessible to both your live and dev environments -- which
could be either the live or dev machine, or a third machine,
depending on your setup. You can manage the separate dev and live
environments by making one of these a branch.
