I generally follow as a practice to keep a variable v_version at package level or any script level . ( i have only packages ) and this v_version is nothing but $header$ in mks . This way I can always run a query to find out object versions in db . This is REALLY helpful specially when code is wrapped in production .

Take a backup of the database on a seperate tape each day !

What components of the database do you want to version ? Table definitions ? View definitions ? Packages/Procedures/Triggers ? Code Objects should be versioned, but data objects [Tables/Indexes/Sequences] would generally not vary once the design is done, save for a few changes/additions/enhancements.
