Matt:
The problem is caused because revget.ex expects svnversion.exe
to be on a the end users system. That file will not be on any
end user that has source on their system and not the COMPLETE
SUBVERSION SYSTEM on there computer.
Looking at the OP, you are wrong.
I'll repeat, WRONG.
The problem is a bug in the way -i is handled. Derek was going to work on fixing this. But this has nothing to do with svnversion.exe
If as each developer does a commit on the trunk that developer
could run a special revget after their commit on the trunk and
create a special SVN_version text which would be placed
in the trunk.
I'm not aware of a way to run an automated script on the client side to do that (and even if it was possible, it'd be an increase in the burden of becoming a dev).
And as Jeremy pointed out, we can't add the hook to the server side (where it'd a) be a lot easier to do and b) work much better than either your proposed system or the current system) because we lack permission to do so.
