because that was one of the reasons in the original concept: show that
the file is complete. OTOH, this might have been an issue in times when
files were transferred with insecure protocols via modems and no longer
today.
What do other devs and users think? Should we remove the $Id$ tags
completely, or anything else?
Why not just start to replace expanded $Id$ tags with a literal $Id$ just as and when individual files are committed? Just like copyright year. That way the Source Documentation rules in the CMP wouldn't change. Maybe it would be possible to add a commit filter to check?
Are the $Id$ tags actually being used or checked by anything? If not, change the CMP and slowly start removing them.
