And I of course forgot to include the little script once written for littler; now below. For Rcpp and RInside, I wrote little ad-hoc release helper scripts to also run doxygen, copy vignettes and tarballs to webfolders etc pp. If you do that, you have a hook -- but then you'd have to run this once pre-commit / build. | R-forge sometimes gets out of sync in what it displays as the revision, | the Version, and what it actually offers as the "Package source" (let | alone binaries), so I find putting the revision into the version number | very helpful. But I often forget to do it... Scripts can help. Somewhat.
