Why tamper with auto generated files at all?. You can insert the build
number into one of your source files by running SubWCRev.exe that comes
with Tortoise and avoid "touching" the .res file altogether.

No, TortoiseSVN is a front-end for Subversion and I'm sure SVN it won't
commit without a change to at least one revisioned file.
