I think he means:
$ wget -O- http://svn.savannah.gnu.org/svn/apl/trunk/ | fgrep Revision | sed -r
's/.*Revision ([0-9]+).*/\1/' | head -n1
or
$ Revision=$(wget -O- http://svn.savannah.gnu.org/svn/apl/trunk/ | fgrep
Revision | sed -r 's/.*Revision ([0-9]+).*/\1/' | head -n1)
$ echo $Revision

Thanks for your reply but I don’t understand what you mean by ‘scrape that’

Will be in the page title. I'd say scrape that since it's easy to do so.

*Subject:*How find GNUAPL svn repository revision number
I’ve searched and read for the answer but come up dry.
I’m on macOS High Sierra
Assume I have svn co'd …trunk to a local working copy
I want to write a*_bash script_*to
compare the local working copy revision number
vs
the svn://svn.savannah.gnu.org/apl/trun <x-msg://2/UrlBlockedError.aspx>
repository revision number.
I know how to find out the revision number of my local working copy
using svnversion or svn info if i need more data.
My question:
But I don’t know how to script to get the revision number
of the svn://svn.savannah.gnu.org/apl/trun <x-msg://2/UrlBlockedError.aspx>
Please help….
Thanks
Peter
