First check that LocalPath is pointing to the correct location. Sometimes the bug is sooo trivial we don't notice it. ;-)
<SvnVersion/> expects svnversion.exe to live at $(ProgramFiles)\Subversion\bin. If it doesn't live there, then specify ToolPath to the directory where it does live. Example: <SvnVersion ToolPath="$(ProgramFiles)\CollabNet Subversion Client" LocalPath="..\"> <Output TaskParameter="Revision" PropertyName="Revision"/> </SvnVersion> Use <Message Text="Version: $(Revision)" Importance="high"/> while testing to make it easier for the revision to be printed. The verbosity level of msbuild can affect whether these messages are printed or not. Edwin G.
