/**
 * Encapsulates a vcs revision number, date or range of revisions.

 * The type of the QVariant value depends on the type of the revision,
 * the following table lists the standard types and the according datatype
 * in the QVariant:
 *
 * <table>
 * <tr><th>Revision type</th><th>QVariant type</th></tr>
 * <tr><td>GlobalNumber</td><td>qlonglong/QString</td></tr>
 * <tr><td>FileNumber</td><td>qlonglong/QString</td></tr>
 * <tr><td>Date</td><td>QDateTime</td></tr>
 * <tr><td>Special</td><td>KDevelop::VcsRevision::RevisionSpecialType or int, see explanation below</td></tr>
 * </table>
 *
 * The vcs plugins need to register the Revision and RevisionSpecialType with
 * qRegisterMetaType.
 *
 * Also Users of this class should set RevisionSpecialType QVariant values via
 * <code>
 * setRevisionValue( qVariantFromValue<KDevelop::VcsRevision::RevisionSpecialType>( val ), KDevelop::VcsRevision::Special);
 * </code>
 * instead of
 * <code>
 * setRevisionValue( qVariantFromValue( val ), KDevelop::VcsRevision::Special);
 * </code>
 *
 * If the latter method is used the QVariant will be an Integer, which might not
 * be handled by the vcs plugin and is possibly ambiguous with the qlonglong
 * parameters.
