svn info . does not display the latest revision info
SVN: 1.6.6 (r40053) on Windows XP
I'm not sure, whether the current behavior is a bug or feature:
I'm expecting that [snv info .] should display the latest revision info
of all SVN files of my current project.
(I need this info to compile it into my C-source).
However sometimes this works as I'm expecting, sometimes I'm getting
older revision info:
pbs $ svn info changes.txt

Specifying the Project URL gives the expect result (latest revision):

You can either "svn up ." to update to the latest revision first, or use the "svnversion" program. People often use the latter when they need to compile a revision number their programs. There's even a FAQ with more info:

Thanks a lot. Running "svn update ." before "svn info ." does the trick.
I'm grep'ing not only the numerical version number but also the revision
date, so "svnversion" is not an option for me.
Regards, Rolf.

"svn info ." displays the revision of "." (which is unrelated to any files or directories inside "."). You can either "svn up ." to update to the latest revision first, or use the "svnversion" program. People often use the latter when they need to compile a revision number their programs.

I think svnversion may not work on Windows, which you say you use. In that case, you may want to look into SubWCRev.exe.
