The file used with the <version> task is a plain text
file with only the version number in it.
For example, create a new text file and rename it to:
'build.number'
Open the file with a text editor and add your version
number:
1.0.0.0
The <version> task will read the version number, apply
its incrementing algorithm, copy the new version
number into a property whose name you specify with the
'prefix' attrib (default is 'sys', so the property
name will be 'sys.version'), then save the new version
number back into the file for the next build. You can
then use the <asminfo> task to generate
AssemblyInfo.xx file, specifying the version with:
<asminfo ...>
...
<attributes>
<attribute type="AssemblyVersionAttribute"
value="${sys.version}" />
...
</attributes>
</asminfo>
In order for all of my projects in the solution to use
the same AssemblyVersion.xx file, I create this file
at the solution root, then add it to my projects as a
link . Web projects, however, won't allow you to add
files as a link. In this case, I simply use a <copy>
task to put it with my Web projects.

Do you know of a better example? What is the format of
the text file?
There are no examples in the docs.
