According to the Nagel book, svn supports 5 keywords but you have to turn it on by adding a space-delimited list of them to the property svn:keywords. This is from pp 92-93. The book is available in pdf for download from http://www.phptr.com/perens. Amazon has a paper copy. It's a good book. I personally would almost rather put bugs in code than keywords, because they confuse and confound diffs. The information is all available elsewhere, and clean diffs make an SCMer's job so much easier.
