Keywords in source files
We would like to place CVS-like keywords like $author and $version in
our source files so that Subversion inserts the corresponding
information into our source files, e.g. "$author: bdavis". Can this be
done, or is there another way to accomplish the same result? I'm sorry,
but it is not clear to me from the documentation.

Yes, Subversion supports keywords. Read about keywords:
http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.1/ch07s02.html#svn-ch-7-sect-2.3.4
And autoprops:

Sorry, should have replied to all.
Set the svn:keywords property.
