I was doing this in the nightly build's build.xml for a while, but I
switched to doing it in bash because I needed to be able to dictate
the rev number from a script, not just use whatever the HEAD is. But
something like this will do what you want. You will need subversion
1.3.1 -- that is the first client which supports svn info --xml.
Also, it would be a good idea to remove the repository.xml file after
you get what you need from it.
<target name="get-rev-number" unless="done.get-rev-number">
<sequential>
<!-- Get the current repository information -->
<exec executable="svn" output="repository-info.xml">
<arg value="info" />
<arg value="--xml" />
<arg value="http://svn.openlaszlo.org/$
{build.project}/${build.branch}" />
</exec>
<property name="done.get-rev-number" value="true" />
</sequential>
</target>
<target name="setup-names" depends="get-rev-number"
unless="done.setup-names">
<!-- Load repository information into properties -->
<xmlproperty file="repository-info.xml"/>
<property name="revision" value="${info.entry(revision)}" />
<property name="build.name"
value="build-${info.entry(path)}-${revision}" />
<property name="path.tag"
value="http://svn.openlaszlo.org/${build.project}/builds/
${build.name}" />
<!-- print a lot of diagnostic information -->
<echo message="revision is ${revision}" />
<echo message="build.name is ${build.name}" />
<echo message="path.tag is ${path.tag}" />
<property name="done.setup-names" value="true" />
</target>

I think checking for local changes doesn't require network access. It
*shouldn't* at least. Aha:
"With no args, print only locally modified items (no network access)."
So the slowness comes from our gigantor tree. It could be fast if you
list the top-level directories you actually care about...
svn status lps WEB-INF| sed -e /.lzl$/d -e/.class$/d > localchanges.txt
then do something creative with localchanges.txt to make it visible
in the canvas...
I'm liking this. Go Tucker!
