Accessing the SVN revision number in a Gradle script

build.gradle

import org.tmatesoft.svn.core.wc.*

buildscript {
    repositories {
        mavenCentral()
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath group: 'org.tmatesoft.svnkit', name: 'svnkit', version: '1.7.11'
    }
}

def getSvnRevision(){
    ISVNOptions options = SVNWCUtil.createDefaultOptions(true);
    SVNClientManager clientManager = SVNClientManager.newInstance(options);
    SVNStatusClient statusClient = clientManager.getStatusClient();
    SVNStatus status = statusClient.doStatus(projectDir, false);
    SVNRevision revision = status.getRevision();
    return revision.getNumber();
}

allprojects {
    version = '1.2.3.' + getSvnRevision()
}

Good tip, thanks.
You should change svnkit version to recent '1.8.11' to avoid 'Client is too old' exception.

@SNGsuli Second that.

This is great! Thanks
