As a side note, I always put the revision number (1333, etc) in the version
string. This helps me keep track of what version I'm using at any given time,
and also makes it easy to roll between discrete versions (instead of trying to
remember wtf it was you were using last Thursday). I don't know if SVN can be
taught to automatically do that, but it might be nice...
There are various utilities that will interpolate svn info into RCS-style tags ($Id$, etc) just as with cvs. I don't think there's anything officially built-in, though, in the standard svn codebase. (Although the Tortoise client for Windows does.)
