NAME
svnversion - Produce a compact version identifier for a working copy.
SYNOPSIS
svnversion [options] [wc_path [trail_url]]
OVERVIEW
Subversion is a version control system, which allows you to keep old
versions of files and directories (usually source code), keep a log of
who, when, and why changes occurred, etc., like CVS, RCS or SCCS.
Subversion keeps a single copy of the master sources. This copy is
called the source ``repository''; it contains all the information to
permit extracting previous versions of those files at any time.
For more information about the Subversion project, visit

Documentation for Subversion and its tools, including detailed usage
explanations of the svn, svnadmin, svnserve and svnlook programs,
historical background, philosophical approaches and reasonings, etc.,
