Don't set two repositories to the same UUID unless their contents are intended to be completely identical (and such identicalness will be maintained by use of the svnsync program).

Even if you have two repositories that are identical to each other, one of them will need to be designated the "master", and that will be the one that all commits are made to.

Subversion is a one-central-repository system.
