Hello Bernd, have a look at [1], point 2 in the Notes Section:
"The SVN $Date$ keyword should not be used, because it relies on the clients locale. Use the $Id$ keyword instead (see http://markmail.org/message/zx4ii6pq4iin2tol)" The Id svn keyword is important for release votes. Since SVN will update the keyword on every commit, you can simply diff the src distribution with the release tag to make sure they match. We have talked about migrating to git in the passed, but we haven't really reached consensus about this. I don't know whether git will make keywords obsolete, since a tag in git is immutable...
