My knowledge of SVN is limited, so I may be wrong but here's what I 
think about how it is working :
- there's indeed a global release number
- a $...$ field in a file is replaced only when a file is committed
- the version of a file is the last release number where it was modified 
(if we forget about branches)

That's why I thought we need to commit a file to get an update of the 
$...$ field.
If you know how to do it otherwise, that may be interesting.

Providing the correct revision number in the release could be useful, 
but I don't know how to.
