The svn output is arguably more correct. The matplotlib.__revision__ uses the svn $Revision$ keyword, and its content is only updated when matplotlib/__init__.py changes, so it reflects the latest revision in which that file was changed. It would be possible (but no-one has probably thought it worthwhile) to make setup.py determine the overall revision of the checked-out tree (which is more complicated than it sounds, since it might not even be a single revision number; but there is a program called svnversion that does this) and update __init__.py accordingly. -- Jouni K.
