If you are not too worried a few odd merge conflicts, you could always add the
$Revision$ or $Id$ keywords to a comment in your source code and the write
the canonical 5 lines of Perl to snag the revision number from the file. Or
use ident (which is part of RCS) to do that for you.
Check:

for all the gory details.
