[…] b) I'm not sure what the best alternative is for the svn tag, it may just be burning a revision into the source file on checkin and remembering to update it manually on each commit. :-(
I am not sure what a good fix is either, and this command is not the only one which use svn keywords. I sort of feel this should be fixed in the “script” that does the git mirroring, so if I were you, I’d leave it up to me to find a more universal fix for this problem.
I looked into this, and we only have 4 uses of $Revision$ in all the bundles and since the mirror never went “automatic” I think we should just remove this and use other means to keep a revision number.
IOW would be nice if you’ll update the script to not use $Revision$.
