problems getting a segment from a string output
Hi
I'm creating a script that creates files from svn checkout and compress them using tar.gz

the script gets the repository name from command line argument

i need to capture a number from the last line of the output and create a file name from it.


the svn returns output of all the file names from the repository and in the end it says:
revision number xxxxx

i need to get this number and then rename the tar.gz to it

how do i save the output to a variable and get this number


this is the script:

Code:
#!/bin/bash
svn co svn://192.168.1.241/$1 temp && tar czf backup.tar.gz temp

thanks

svn-inject

SVN-INJECT(1)							 Command reference						     SVN-INJECT(1)

NAME

       svn-inject - puts a Debian source package into Subversion repository

SYNOPSIS

       svn-inject [options]
							     package.dsc
							     repository_URL

OPTIONS

       svn-inject accepts the following options on the command-line:

       -h
	   print the help menu

       -v
	   Make the command output verbose

	   Default: Off.

       -q
	   Hide less important messages

	   Default: Off.

       -l
	   Layout type. 1 (default) means package/{trunk,tags,branches,...} scheme, 2 means the {trunk,tags,branches,...}/package scheme.

	   Default: 1

       -t directory
	   Specify the directory where the .orig.tar.gz files are stored on the local machine.

	   Default: Off.

       -d | --do-like=directory
	   Looks at the working directory of some other package and uses its base URL, tarball storage directory and similar checkout target
	   directory.

	   Default: Off.

       -c number
	   Checkout nothing (0), trunk directory (1) or everything (2) when the work is done.

	   Default: 1

       -o
	   Only keep modified files under SVN control (including the debian/ directory), track only parts of upstream branch

	   Default: Off.

       -O | --no-branches
	   Do not create the branches subdirectory at all. This works in a similar way to -o but all changes on upstream files (e.g. meta changes
	   like updating the config.guess and config.sub files) are ignored and the upstream branch is not used.

	   Default: use branches/.

       -s
	   By default, svn-inject used to create .svn/deb-layout after an inject operation if a checkout followed the inject. Since version 0.6.22
	   this behaviour is deprecated.

	   With this parameter svn-inject will replicate the old behaviour.

	   This option was provided since it can be useful when creating a local override file.

	   Default: Off.

       -setprops -set-props
	   Set svn-bp:* props on the debian directory automatically.

	   Default: Off.
