Hi Chuck,

Check the "Keyword Substitution" section in Chapter 3. Advanced Topics 
of the SVN Book.  Basically, this allows string vars for date, version, 
author, etc. to be inserted in your source files that are replaced with 
the string at compile time.  A special var, $Id: $, is a combination of 
all of the others vars, and I've always used it in my files.
