FWIW I have basically never used Bzr's revno in conversations.
There's no question that they're handy, and I've used them, but I think
that dates work well enough in practice as a replacement (with pretty

    "That was fixed in revision 118147, have you updated since then?"
with
    "That was fixed on Sep 23, have you updated since then?"
