Set Subversion variables

Hi,

If you want to substitute variable with Subversion data, you must create a file with the Subversion's variable and lauch a command to told to Subversion to replace them.

Possible variable are:

Date

This keyword describes the last time the file was known to have been changed in the repository, and is of the form $Date: 2006-07-22 21:42:37 -0700 (Sat, 22 Jul 2006) $. It may also be specified as LastChangedDate.

Revision

This keyword describes the last known revision in which this file changed in the repository, and looks something like $Revision: 144 $. It may also be specified as LastChangedRevision or Rev.

Author

This keyword describes the last known user to change this file in the repository, and looks something like $Author: harry $. It may also be specified as LastChangedBy.

HeadURL

This keyword describes the full URL to the latest version of the file in the repository, and looks something like $HeadURL: http://svn.collab.net/repos/trunk/README $. It may be abbreviated as URL.

Id

This keyword is a compressed combination of the other keywords. Its substitution looks something like $Id: calc.c 148 2006-07-28 21:30:43Z sally $, and is interpreted to mean that the file calc.c was last changed in revision 148 on the evening of July 28, 2006 by the user sally.

You can create a version.properties file and set this content:

$HeadURL$
$Author$
$Date$
$Revision$

After that launch this command in terminal:

 svn propset svn:keywords "Date HeadURL Author Revision" version.properties

When you will check out the project, Subversion will replace data...
