[opensuse] howto - better quick and dirty way to get svn rev of local copy?

16 Feb 2011


      Guys,

	I want a quick and dirty want to get the svn revision of a local svn module.
What I'm currently doing is:

#!/bin/bash
getsvnrev() {
  msg "Determining SVN revision for $pkgname..."
  [[ -d .svn ]] && echo $(sed -n '4p' .svn/entries) || echo 9999
}

pkgver=$(getsvnrev)

	It works fine, but is there a standard way (no not svnversion) to read the
local version other than the backwards way I'm doing it?
