Mercurial and Dropbox - El Forum - 03-22-2010

I know this might be a very stupid idea, although i know it works in practice; are there any potential drawbacks to sharing a mercurial repository over a service like dropbox. Basically, putting a 'central' repo in my dropbox folder, and pushing to it and pulling from it where necessary. Im aware that a proper server is the best way to do this, however for personal use, is this likely to cause any problems?

EDIT: btw, im aware ive put this in the wrong place, i realised as soon as i hit post Confused
