Shouldn't the command 'svnversion' be used instead? -

It's true that the output of this command does change with 'svn up', even 
if the update makes no changes to files under version control in your 
working copy.  It *seems* to be sane & reproducible once you've done a 
single svn up, though (and if there are no locally modified files, mixed 
checkouts etc., the version it reports will be a single revision number 
with no non-numeric characters).
