A quick-and-dirty solution would be to have CSS hide it for you. In
your stylesheet, include

    div.revhistory { display: none; }

The revhistory will be included in the HTML file -- and viewable via
the page source or perhaps an alternative stylesheet -- but otherwise
won't be displayed.

If you're relying on CSS, then you aren't worrying about old, broken
browsers anyway, right? :-)
