I'm using a PostgreSQL database to store all this information and also a lot
of meta information about each rpm.
My scripts only add the svn commit revision before a spec file is used for a
rebuild. That modified spec file which contains the svn commit revision is
not checked in again. It's only used for the rebuild.
