I guess this is due to the fact that now I'm making my builds from the
git repository [1], instead of the bzr branch.

Anyway, if you want to know the bzr revno associated with a binary,
just look at the archive name, as explained in the file
"snapshots/README":

  The archives in this directory are named according to this pattern:

     emacs-rREVNO-YYYYMMDD-API-bin.zip

  where:
    * REVNO is the bzr revision (of the trunk branch) that was built.
    * YYYYMMDD is the commit date of the above revision.
    * API is the host OS API (always "w32" for now).
