Hmm... is the issue that you want to work from the 2 or 3 machines 
without doing commits?

Using SVN, you can keep files on a removable media, transport it around, 
and do a commit when or wherever you are.

If the reason for having two repos is you want to maintain a different 
"branch" than what someone on the client is working on, then SVN does 
allow for branching as well. If you're both working on different parts 
of the same project and / or want to merge your changes together, well, 
that's just part of the normal operation of SVN.
