Hi, Michael, The only thing I would refrain from is putting the repo via file:// URL on a network drive. The setup might be easier than setting up svnserve or apache, but locking on network drives is a very fragile issue, and AFAICS all projects involving locking (SVN, SQLite, BerkeleyDB, ...) discourage from such setups.
