RE: Verifying a file version

Thanks Ryan. Parsing the output really isn't a big deal. I guess I was
hoping for a more eloquent solution.

Any suggested reading for SVN? Specifically, we're looking at
establishing baselines for our systems using SVN. Can this be done
using this tool?

something to that effect)? See examples below for further details.

To correct the terminology, you're trying to verify the "last changed
revision" of the file. And I don't think you're going to find a solution
that doesn't involve parsing the output of some svn command.
