title: How to fetch current subversion revision number and URL with maven
body: <p>I make a checkout of some branch or tag from subversion repository and then build the project with maven. </p>
  
  <p>Now, I'd like to get store <em>current</em> revision number and URL to some file. How can I do that? That is, I'd like to get revision number and URL of whatever branch/tag I have made checkout of.</p>
  
  <p>I know about <a href="http://mojo.codehaus.org/buildnumber-maven-plugin/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">buildnumber-maven-plugin</a> but I think it doesn't do this. It fetches revision number of branch that is specified in pom.xml.</p>
