Hi.

For git components we use COMPONENT_REVISION=$(shell cd 
$(COMPONENT_SRC); git rev-list HEAD --count). Or just bump 
COMPONENT_REVISION and add HUMAN_VERSION like 0.5.3.r550. Another 
possibility is to preserve COMPONENT_REVISION for its original use and
generate last component of COMPONENT_VERSION based on the commit number.

You could be interested in  adding something like 
https://hg.openindiana.org/upstream/oracle/userland-gate/file/a092c6b08fcc/make-rules/prep-svn.mk 
to deal with fetching svn sources.
