Disabling Post Revision on WordPress

WordPress has many nice features but, for me, one of the least endearing features in the latest version, version 2.6, is the post version editing feature.  For a large blog with many contributors and editors, I can imagine this to be a very nice and useful enhancement.  However, on a small blog such as this, the intermittent (and incorrect) reminders that a more recent post exists are just a hindrance.  So I looked in to how one might turn it off, and it seems quite straightforward.  In order to disable the post revision feature, simply add the following line to your wp-config.php file:

define('WP_POST_REVISIONS', false);

And that should be the end of it.
