I like this, but what if you also did an svn status to see if there were any modifications WRT the branch/revision and then add either 'clean' or 'modified' to the information.

So you would get (gcc-4_1-branch revision 108596 modified) or (gcc-4_1-branch revision 108596 clean) 


I think we already had this discussion and decided that svn status took
too long in many cases.


Maybe have a configure option to disable svn status and return 'unknown' if you disable the svn status part.


Did you mean something like

./contrib/gcc_update --disable-svn-status

I can certainly do that.



No I meant from the top level configure. Something like this:

../gcc/configure --disable-svn-status-in-gcc-version-string --other-configure-parameters
