I have... for the past weeks, I have been adding $Id$ tags
to files that didn't have them. In fact, I'm about to commit
files in util/upload; grep says:

FileHandler.java:80: * @version $Id$
FileItem.java:85: * @version $Id$
MultipartStream.java:116: * @version $Id$ 

Here I go with the commit:

[momentous pause]

and now grep says:

FileHandler.java:80: * @version $Id: FileHandler.java,v 1.2 2000/09/05

FileItem.java:85: * @version $Id: FileItem.java,v 1.4 2000/09/05 23:33:47
gonzalo Exp $
MultipartStream.java:116: * @version $Id: MultipartStream.java,v 1.2
2000/09/05 23:33:47 gonzalo Exp $

There you go! Could it be your knowledge comes from an old
version of RCS/CVS, where you really had to use $Id: $?
I have used CVS for years (really) now, and I have ALWAYS
used just $Id$ to add new ID tags.
