Re: How find GNUAPL svn repository revision number

[Christian Robert]

I think he means:

$ wget -O- http://svn.savannah.gnu.org/svn/apl/trunk/ | fgrep Revision | sed -r 
's/.*Revision ([0-9]+).*/\1/' | head -n1

or

$ Revision=$(wget -O- http://svn.savannah.gnu.org/svn/apl/trunk/ | fgrep 
Revision | sed -r 's/.*Revision ([0-9]+).*/\1/' | head -n1)

$ echo $Revision
1348
