You can try the following step, this may help you out:

1. Manually set the CFBundleShortVersionString (aka "Bundle versions string, short") value in your info.plist to your major.minor build number (e.g. 1.0)

2. Add a 'run script' build phase to your project with the following script

REV=`svnversion -nc | /usr/bin/sed -e 's/^[^:]*://;s/[A-Za-z]//'`
BASEVERNUM=`/usr/libexec/PlistBuddy -c "Print :CFBundleShortVersionString" "${INFOPLIST_FILE}"`
/usr/libexec/PlistBuddy -c "Set :CFBundleVersion $BASEVERNUM.$REV" "${INFOPLIST_FILE}"

3.Clean and build (the Clean step forces Xcode to reprocess the info.plist).
