[Python-Dev] Expose Subversion revision number to Python

Fri Dec 16 12:02:19 CET 2005

 Armin> What about having instead:
 Armin> sys.build_info = ("CPython", <svn rev>, "trunk")
 Armin> This would make it clear that it's the CPython svn rev number,
 Armin> and it could possibly be used to distinguish between branches,
 Armin> too, which the revision number alone cannot do. ("trunk" is the
 Armin> last part of the path returned by "svn info".)
What was your directory path when you got "trunk" from "svn info"? In my
sandbox I get this:
 % pwd
 /Users/skip/src/python-svn/trunk
 % svn info
 Path: .
 URL: svn+ssh://pythondev@svn.python.org/python/trunk
