Notice in the bottom right hand corner of this page it has the SVN revision id? I’m assuming that’s dynamic.
I’d love to add that to some of my sites, just as a comment in the source to make sure code pushes are going through.
NOTE: You can also assume that the working directory of the site in question is an svn checkout of the repo in question.
Edit: I’m looking for the global revision number, not the revision number of the file I’m looking at.
You can use the
svnversionCLI utility to get a more specific look at the revision, including the highest number. You could then use regular expressions to parse this.Subversion has no concept of a global revision; rather, you’d have to recursively look through the working copy to find the highest revision number.
svnversiondoes that for you.
