Well OK. But what if you build before committing?

Some people (including me) use it in their build scripts for exactly
that reason. We _don't_ want to release uncommitted code by mistake, and
using SubWCRev helps show that condition up. It is all too easy to
commit changes and then forget to redo the build before making the
release.
