Have a look at the Replace task in ant. I am using that task for a similar operation in my build.

This looks like: HelpContextID="0" CompatibleMode="0" MajorVer=3 MinorVer=8 RevisionVer=38 [...] How can I replace a line from this file with some other text? I thought about "loadfile" or "patch", but don“t know exactly if these would work.
