Yes, I agree. As for getting familiar with svn you can get the information from $ID by doing: svn log /src/somefile.txt I reckon that is enough. > The $Id keyword might be useful when people have the sourcecode deployed > for instance at some customer without having a local SVN, which allows > to check on the version of a file, but I remember there was some very > good reason why not to use the $Id keyword, > but I have forgotton what it was (someone within the Jackrabbit ML > pointed this out) > and cannot find it currently.

People tend to contact the author ($id contains the last updater but people normally see them equal) because his name is written in the tag. Like michi said svn usage and usage of the $id are two different things. salu2 -- thorsten "Together we stand, divided we fall!"
