OK, now I'm confused, since the standard changed slightly since I wrote my .info file.
I changed the version string to version = "$Name" and committed the change.
When I then run cvs update, the string in the info file returns as:
version = "$Name: $"
I assume that this is by design and I should not worry about it. But it does not conform to the documentation.
