Use 'svn propset' to set the 'svn:keywords' property on a file.

The value of the property is a space-delimited list of keywords that you
want to activate. The choices are (taken from svn_types.h)

/* The most recent revision in which this file was changed. */
#define SVN_KEYWORD_REVISION_LONG "LastChangedRevision"
#define SVN_KEYWORD_REVISION_SHORT "Rev"

/* The most recent date (repository time) when this file was changed. */
#define SVN_KEYWORD_DATE_LONG "LastChangedDate"
#define SVN_KEYWORD_DATE_SHORT "Date"

/* Who most recently committed to this file. */
#define SVN_KEYWORD_AUTHOR_LONG "LastChangedBy"
#define SVN_KEYWORD_AUTHOR_SHORT "Author"

/* The URL for the head revision of this file. */
#define SVN_KEYWORD_URL_LONG "HeadURL"
#define SVN_KEYWORD_URL_SHORT "URL"

...you can use either the long or short form of each keyword in your
document, and in the value of the svn:keywords property. It's up to
you.

Sorry for the lack of documentation. This is a relatively new, untested
feature. When we hit alpha, we'll cover these holes. :-)
