Build numbers

The $Rev$ keyword is substituted by the last revision in which a file
changed.

Is there a keyword which is substituted by the latest version of the
repository as a whole?  I'd like to use this to automatically embed a build
number in the source.

No. Because that would mean "svn up" would have to change files in the wc
even though they had not changed in the repository - i.e. it would have to
function totally differently to all the other keywords.

Try using svnversion in your build process.
