at the moment, there is not. there also needs to be a way for the
server to push that data down to the clients. we've wanted this for a
while, so we can implement project specific keyword expansion (i.e. a
$FreeBSD$ or $NetBSD$ style $Id$ tag), but nobody has stepped up to do
the work.

basically, the repos just needs a config file like the client uses, and
the RA layers need a way to send that config info back to the client.
