You should have looked into the SVN Book at http://svnbook.red-bean.com/:

| LastChangedRevision
| This keyword describes the last known revision in which this file
changed in the repository, and
| looks something like $LastChangedRevision: 144 $. It may be
abbreviated as Revision
| or Rev.

So $Revision$ should work in any SVN client which uses the Subversion
library (as done by TortoiseSVN).

I understand it, that you have to set LastChangedRevision in
svn:keywords to enable expansion of $Revision$.
If you have any more questions about this, ask at the right place which
is the Subversion user mailing list.

You asked this question in the FAQ section but I don't think it is a FAQ
at all, so please discuss your problems at the mailing list.

Regards, Rainer
