Why drop the feature ?
If we want a "true" repository revision we should provide
that in an header file (which we'd touch) and use that when
we see fit. I wouldn't drop the file-specific one though,
you can always get a diff from current to the specific one
w/out querying the server (right? or time to move to git :).
