Current Subversion revision command

Question

Is there a Subversion command to show the current revision number?

After svn checkout I want to start a script and need the revision number in a variable.

Answer 1

1. First of all svn status has the revision number, you can read it from there.

2. Also, each file that you store in SVN can store the revision number in itself -- add the $Rev$ keyword to your file and run propset: svn propset svn:keywords "Revision" file

3. Finally, the revision number is also in .svn/entries file, fourth line

Now each time you checkout that file, it will have the revision in itself.
