Is it safe to share SVN repositories and working copies between 32bit and 64 bit Linux?

I want to upgrade my Linux box from Debian Jessie (32bit) to Debian Jessie (64bit). For the transition time, the machine will boot alternating the 32bit and the 64bit OS.

I have several SVN repositories and working copies on it. Is it safe to share SVN repositories and working copies between 32bit and 64 bit?

I need to do copy the content from one SVN repository to the other SVN repositories. Also, I need to make sure that Bidirectional merges are working after I copy content from one SVN to other.

Does anybody know how to do that. I think we have a svnsync command to copy the contents from one svn to other. But I am not sure if this allows bidirectional merging or not or bidirectional merging is even possible or not.

When I configure my google test framework for a 32 bit machine, I can run all my test cases successfully with no unpredictable behavior. But when I configure it for a 64 bit machine & run my test cases, it gives severe & abrupt crashes. It crashes in places where it is not supposed to. I tried debugging the issue but was out of my depths. I am not sure if there is a problem while configuring the google test framework for 64 bit or maybe it does not support 64 bit. Any help would be appreciated. Please feel free to get in touch if any clarity is required regarding the query I have shared.
Note : The same code base works perfect on a 32 bit machine.

There has been a lot of talk that Java is not safe (can be attacked, virus, etc.) recently, and due to the nature of some of the security problems, will never be fixed. I was told to remove Java from Firefox (not Java Script). Libre Office uses Java as part of the Base section.

Is Java going to be the 'back door' into Linux virus', attacks, etc.
