ability to get the current revision of the project workspace
------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: SCM-335
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/SCM-335
             Project: Maven SCM
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: maven-plugin
         Environment: subversion
            Reporter: nicolas de loof
            Priority: Minor


I'd like to add in my artifacts manifest the SVN revision number. 
The scm plugin seems to be the best place to extract such info, but doesn't 
seem to yet have support for this.

I'd like to see some scm:revision goal in the plugin, to set a property I can 
use later. 

I've found this plugin :
http://commons.ucalgary.ca/projects/maven-buildnumber-plugin/howto.html
but it has the issue of parsing the text-based svn output. As a french user, 
svn is localized and doesn't return the expected "Revision" property (but 
R*é*vision).

Maybe I looking in the wrong place as revision number concept is not portable 
to CVS, for example, and maybe neither to other SCM tools.
