Comment (by bpetty):

 Replying to [comment:24 nacin]:
 > Also, bumpbot runs immediately before the nightly build is generated,
 which means the build itself is going to be accurate. Unfortunately since
 SVN 1.7 made this more difficult, there's no compelling reason to add this
 to core for now.

 Actually, bumpbot might run right before nightlies, but unless there's
 actually changes to CSS/JS, it still doesn't bother bumping the revision
 even when it has changed. So no, the nightlies aren't even accurate. This
 is actually what brought my attention to this ticket in the first place --
 someone using nightlies thought they weren't actually updating.

 I know there's still a way to at least safely run "svn info --xml" within
 core if it's there (rather than the .svn/entries check that was first
 proposed).
