There is no way how to get SVN revision into formatted buildNumber
------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: MOJO-1620
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MOJO-1620
             Project: Mojo
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: buildnumber
    Affects Versions: buildnumber-maven-plugin-1.0-beta-4
         Environment: Windows 32-bit
            Reporter: Roman Zenka
            Priority: Minor


The buildNumber understand two special kinds of items - timestamp and 
buildNumber???. The latter will produce a special property file and will start 
incrementing the buildNumber??? property.

I spend quite some time to figure out the following:

1) buildNumber\*d in documentation is a regular expression, not a command! 
These guys got it wrong: 
http://www.packtpub.com/article/useful-maven-plugins-part1
2) Using e.g. buildNumber1 will enforce new numbering, will NOT use the SVN 
revision, even if available
3) There is currently no way to use <format> and <info> to get the SVN revision

This needs clarifications in the documentation + possibly introduction of a 
new, special variable (maybe called scmRevisionNumber) ?
