^^^ That's exactly what I'm talking about. Sometimes it will build 1
revision, and other times 2 or more revisions could be mixed into one
build. I'd like to avoid that.


You can't avoid this with a post commit hook

If you're building dozens and dozens of projects, this adds up when it's once every 5 
mins.

I don't know how you verify this, but I got the impression that
continuum was performing a 'svn update' (for subversion, anyways),
which, could be rather heavy depending on how your repository is laid
out. I'm not sure offhand if subversion provides a more efficient way
though.


svn info gives you the local revision
svn info URL gives you the remote one

conitnuum may be improved to use this instead of a checkout if it does
not currently

I could give you my word as a Spaniard.
No good. I've known too many Spaniards.
