I installed svn r4071. `svn info <working copy>` and
`svnversion <working copy>` report the correct rev number. But
$ ipython -pylab
In [1]: matplotlib.__version__
Out[1]: '0.90.1'
In [2]: matplotlib.__revision__
Out[2]: '$Revision: 3975 $'
If I'm right, this is because in matplotlib/__init__.py:
__revision__ = '$Revision: 3975 $'
which is the last rev where *this file* changed. Shouldn't
matplotlib.__revision__ report the latest global revision number?
Like that:
import subprocess as su
p = su.Popen('svnversion <path/to/working copy>',
shell=True, stdin=su.PIPE, stdout=su.PIPE)
revnr = p.stdout.read().strip()
print revnr
