Well as I see it when the package is synced the revision and other
keywords needs to be resolved manually. What we have in the package
tree is not likely the same as upstream and will not be what the
upstream author had in mind. And if there are cases where we have
introduced the keyword we might find other ways to solve that.

Having said that I really wonder how Revision and other keywords
worked for us before (when we used CVS). What am I missing!?
