I made a proposition for the ivtv project, which was accepted by them.
This is the original text:
Hello
I use a 0.4.1 branch. dmesg displays: "ivtv: version 0.4.1
(development svn snapshot revision 2839 ) loading"
For me I do not want to see the latest trunk version (this revision
changes always). I want to see the last commited version for this branch.
With this revision number I can easily check if there were any changes
made for my specific branch
http://ivtvdriver.org/trac/browser/ivtv/branches/ (2834)
I propose to use "svnversion -n -c ." (630:2834, the second value
should be used) instead of "svnversion -n ." (2839) in the makefile.
When helping people it is much easier, because the used revision can
be quickly checked against the latest commited change for the branch.
Help can be provided earlier, instead of the usual "do a svn update"
first.

I like this idea, is there any harm in changing the following line in
mythcontext.h:
#define MYTH_BINARY_VERSION "0.19.20051128-1"
to something like
#define MYTH_BINARY_VERSION "0.19.20051128-1 SVN Rev. 8089"
or even better:
#define MYTH_BINARY_VERSION "0.19.20051128-8089"
Would it cause any problems elsewhere? After looking at the code,
app_binary_version is used as the variable, defined as a Qstring, so it
should work, no?
I'll try it on my checkout and see what happens... :)
