I've been using the following for a while now:

function note_netsync_revision_received(rev_id, rev_text, rev_certs, 
session_id)
   for i,cert in ipairs(rev_certs) do
      if cert["name"] == "branch" then
         branch = cert["value"]
      elseif cert["name"] == "date" then
         date = cert["value"]
      elseif cert["name"] == "author" then
         author = cert["value"]
      elseif cert["name"] == "changelog" then
         changelog = cert["value"]
      end
   end
   print(rev_id .. " " .. date .. " " .. branch .. " " .. author)
end

The only case that it kinda sucks in is on a fresh pull, where it lists 
a lot of revisons, but even that isn't all that bad.
