svnversion is better than svn -info for build numbers.
------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: MOJO-1452
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MOJO-1452
             Project: Mojo
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: _Plugin Submission
    Affects Versions: buildnumber-maven-plugin-1.0-beta-3
         Environment: Any subversion
            Reporter: James R. Collings


"svn --info" isn't the proper subversion tool for retrieving version info of local copy.

See this thread:

The point is that I might be using a generated artifact and not be quite certain of the version and/or the status of that version. 'svnversion' will handle this while svn --info does not.

Baptiste MATHUS commented on MOJO-1452:
---------------------------------------

I agree with this request.

Another use case would be a non versionned project. 'svn info' will throw an exception. svnversion will just output 'exported' as the code isn't versioned.

The thing is: after a quick look in the buildnumber code, it seems like the corresponding code isn't in buildnumber, but in one of the scm-svn provider api. But if an interface to svnversion if already offered by this API, the evolution should be feasible.

Cheers
