StackOverflow implements it like this:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://sstatic.net/so/all.css?v=4542">
Every time the referenced files change, the href attribute of the link tag is updated in the HTML code, thus supporting caching and updated referenced files.
My question - how do you retrieve the subversion version of that css file to include in the link? Subversion keywords only tell you the revision of the file you are currently in.
I'm working with PHP/CodeIgniter + jQuery.
