The XML in my previous comment got stripped. Basically, exec the executable ‘bash’, and pass two nested arg elements to the exec:

value=”-c”
line=”svnversion -c ${rootbasedir} | cut -d : -f 2″

This tells bash to execute the entire string, and the output of svnversion gets piped to cut, which slices off only the part we care about.

I took a much simpler approach, using the `cut` command using ‘:’ as a delimiter.
