Have a look here: http://quazaa.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/quazaa/trunk/
Our project file in the Quazaa folder has the call to an executable 
which is located in the version folder which fetches version infromation 
from subversion and creates a header. It's similar to what automoc does 
with .ui files.
