Hi Gennar,

It is not entirely clear to me if you mean "keyword variables" as
in Subversion's keyword substitution feature, or something else?

Defining custom keywords in SVN is possible to a certain degree. See here:
http://subversion.apache.org/docs/release-notes/1.8.html#custom-keywords
Perhaps that already does what you need?

Which documentation have you consulted so far?

Features of newer SVN releases tend to be documented in the release notes,
rather than the SVN Book: http://subversion.apache.org/docs/release-notes/
This is mostly due to a lack of volunteers working on the SVN Book.
