Oleg Kalnichevski commented on HTTPCLIENT-664:
----------------------------------------------

> Perhaps change REV to REVISION?

Sure.

> The REV string will only get updated when the VersionInfo.java file is 
> updated in SVN, so I can't see the point.
> Unless the idea is that this file will be updated immediately prior to a 
> release, in which case this should be documented in the file.

This is mainly to be able to tell one SNAPSHOT from another. It is pretty much 
pointless for official releases.

> Also, why not simplify:

What if there is no match?
