tags and keywords

[fisch <fi...@conne-island.de>]

hi,
In CVS you can tag a version (a set of source files). 
During export the cvs substitutes the some keywords, especially the
keyword "name" with the specified tag.
If you use in your c++ sources the line 
< static volatile const char* ___version___ = "@(#) $Name: $"; >, 
it is possible the retrieve the tag-version out of the compiled binary
with the tool <ident>.

Is in SVN an similar beahvoir included?
I know that tagging is different to cvs. But the recommented structure
of the repository includes a path "tags". So i suggest a keyword that
would use these behavior.

bye

< static volatile const char* ___version___ = "@(#) $HeadURL$"; >,

should do the trick. If you want you can parse this thing a bit in your
runtime code.
