It's an svn property associated with the file. The property name is
svn:keywords, and the value is a space separated list of keywords you'd
like to have substituted. Like this:
svn propset svn:keywords "Date Revision" ...file list...
The list of keywords it will handle is
LastChangedDate (or Date)
LastChangedRevision (or Revision or Rev)
LastChangedBy (or Author)
HeadURL (or URL)
