A one-time translation of the keywords to a reversible format, such as
that used by RCS, would likely also be acceptable.


Rich tried this and I futzed with it a little bit; we tried using
encode/decode filters - but I believe it would slow down pulls/clones
incredibly as it would have to transform each and every single file on a
pull/clone/push.  I think Rich expressed this same concern.

If you use the RCS keyword approach I think you only pay when you
do a commit.
