FreeBSD=%H means that when "$FreeBSD$" is found in the file on commit, it is 
expanded into a string that contains the path, the last revision, the 
date, and the author.  More information:

It's funny that you point that out.  We have multiple sections on using 
Subversion in multiple books, but not a single one of them covers that.

I will add an abbreviated explanation.
