That would be nice, though I'd prefer to have it below the commit message in 
the email body.

Oddly, I like having it there, especially when I see that bugs are being fixed 
and both repositories are being touched (say, a Zope 2 bug on the 2.7 branch 
and the head).  The CVS emails still say "CVS:"; are you suggesting that be 
removed as well?

On the other hand, I don't feel terribly strongly about this, and could easily 
live without the "SVN:" marker.  If there were only one repository, I'd 
prefer not to have the extra cruft.

Yes, zpkg is still in CVS.  While this produces a few command-line snaffus on 
my part as I switch back and forth (typing "svn" when I needed "cvs", or vice 
versa), I'd rather put off further migration into Subversion for a bit.  Some 
of us are drowning in the Zope X3 release cycle at the moment.  One drowning 
at a time would be appreciated.  ;-)
