Well for now you're going to have to add it manually by editing
"farcry_core\admin\build.txt" At the top of the file edit the "Name"
keyword in the CVS header by adding your build number (ie "$Name: p220
$").

As to the larger question, what happened to the build number to begin
with? It's dissapearance seems to have something to to with Branching in
CVS. What little I've Googled on the problem points to a known problem
with CVS and the "Name" keyword when using branching.

On that note, it might be time to look for a better method of parsing
the build number. Maybe it's time to migrate build.txt to XML? Thoughts?
