By serving or pulling particular branches.  The current system for
doing that is due for revamping: at present if you pull
net.venge.monotone then you get all branches with that prefix.

However, with the right naming scheme you can probably work out
something that'll do what you want even with the current system.

OK, I hadn't thought of that.  It seems likely that listening on
127.0.0.1 would work, as someone suggested.  Or you could use iptables
or whatever.
