Thank you for your help! It helped me.

In the result:
We can use "svnversion -n", but there is some important point is that received result can be like a mix of "work copy revision number" and "head revision number" and it can has some symbol's flags (M or S or P, or all symbols together). "Here":http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.7/svn.ref.svnversion.re.html is some detailed description.

If you want to use only SVN revision number of "checked out work copy" you have to parse the result.
Under Mac or other Unix we can use "svn info" and "grep". Or under all platforms we can use "svnversion -n" and parse result in the pro file.

It can can something like that:
@
#all platforms:
SVNN = $$system("svnversion -n")
SVNN = $$replace(SVNN,"M","")
SVNN = $$replace(SVNN,"S","")
SVNN = $$replace(SVNN,"P","")
SVNN = $$section(SVNN, :, 0, 0)

#Unix, Mac
SVNN = $$system("svn info | grep "Revision" | awk '{print $2}'")

SVNR = $$system("svn info --show-item=revision")
