5. Solution approach: (svn info,...) generate revision to an extra file
If you generate the info within the compilation you would presume that
you operate on a svn workarea. But the make has to work on plain
distributed sources, too.
I noticed that several other projects did face the same problem. IIRC
there are even comments on the svn homepage concerning this unsolved
problem. Those projects that report revisions like Tortoise do edit them
manually into the sources.
I would appreciate any simple proper solution for this request.
A simple shell script like
cat <<EOF
const char *svnVersion =
"`which svnversion >/dev/null && svnversion`";
EOF
combined with a simple rule in the Makefile should do the trick.
Svnversion prints "exported" as the revision number when the working
directory is not a working copy and appends an "M" if the working copy
contains modifications.
Cheers,
Daniel
