SharpSVN currently is on version 1.7004.2064, where the second number of the tuple is a combination of the second and third tuple of the upstream SVN number, and the third number is the sharpsvn revision / build number.

TortoiseSVN could maybe adopt a similar scheme. It can be adopted in the next build without decreasing any version number, and it also makes it obvious that an user with "SVN Version 1.7004.42" is not referring to plain svn, but some derivate.

Of course, this scheme will run into problems when SVN someday releases 1.7.1000, 1.65.535 or 1.66.0. :-)

Best regards
