(see https://www.apache.org/dev/infra-contact) Support for leading "r" in revnums was implemented upstream in issues #441 and #488. The implementation was a one-line patch, which should be trivial to cherry-pick onto Infra's ViewVC installation if upgrading the viewvc installation to a release that includes those patches isn't an option.
