On the current SVN implementation, this expansion is only done if a
client-side setting says so. So every user would have to enable it.
Server-side settings that "push" out to clients is planned, but AFAIK
not until the next major release (2.0).
From what I understand (which may be incorrect!), this is not client side -
It's an attribute on each file under SVN control. The standard from-source
tarball build defaults to honoring this expansion.
During configure (or build), scan a specific place in all source files
(head -nx) for the highest $revision$ tag. Once you've scanned all
files, grab the associated date from $id$, then create locally in the
build tree a .h/.cpp with a singleton version function.
If the above worked, you would just do it with one file, which would
really affect build time.
That would only get you the revision of the last change of that one file,
hence the issue. There is no global revision number accessible from a $tag$.
Cheers,
Allan.
