I normally use SubWCRev (part of TSVN distribution) for this. It
transforms a template file like version.in.h into a working file like
version.h which contains the timestamp of the last committed revision
in the directory tree for which it was called. This is what is used to
generate the revision numbers in the about info in TSVN itself.
