    That’s a nice one. But svn info output depends on the machine’s locale, so you could run into potential errors when trying to use the parsed info.

    I prefer to take advantage of the—xml option you can pass to every svn command use XmlSimple.

    The XML nodes keep the name in English no matter what your locale is.

    >> pp XmlSimple.xml_in(`svn info --xml`)
{"entry"=>
  [{"commit"=>
     [{"date"=>["2007-06-25T13:06:18.342675Z"],
       "author"=>["jramirez"],
       "revision"=>"278"}],
    "kind"=>"dir",
    "repository"=>
     [{"uuid"=>["ef259510-392e-0410-90f3-ae674396ba6e"],
       "root"=>["http://svn_aspgems/jramirez"]}],
    "wc-info"=>[{"schedule"=>["normal"]}],
    "url"=>["http://svn_aspgems/jramirez/trunk"],
    "revision"=>"278",
    "path"=>"."}]}
