What benefit is had by losing this information by default? That is not affected by the reproducible knob. Builds always include the output of svnversion. For example, my desktop machine on stable that has the default (reproducible on) has: % uname -a FreeBSD desktop 12.0-STABLE FreeBSD 12.0-STABLE r347074 GENERIC amd64 As long as you can do 'svn up -r' to get the same tree that uname -a claims, svnversion is doing its job, even if the last N commits are userland-only and don't impact the kernel. -- John Baldwin
