When EQEmu transitioned from svn to git, they went away from the traditional "revisision" method and replaced it with a "date" based method. So if you downloaded the daily db dump today, your version of the db is, well, todays, example 9-17-2013, so you would only need to source in updates after that date, which should be none right (sometimes the source and the daily dumps may be a day off of each other). In the future, should you decide that you want to build a new server from new source code, and you want to keep using the database you sourced in on 9-17-2013, then you would just need to source in any db updates dated after 9-17-2013, ect.ect... So how do you keep track of what you sourced? Either keep track on a spreadsheet or you could try using this method in this post:

As to the eqtime.cfg, that is included with the daily dump that you downloaded, so just put it into your server root directory, and that error is gone...

To summarize, for a NEW DB, you download the daily dump db, create a new db, source in the peqbeta-####-##-##-##_##.sql, then user_tables-####-##-##-##_##.sql, then the source_views.sql and you are up to date... If you want mercs and/or bots, see this post:
http://www.eqemulator.org/forums/showthread.php?t=37295

but for mercs only just source in:

Code:
UPDATE `npc_types` SET `class` = 71 WHERE `lastname` LIKE '%Mercenary Liaison%';

UPDATE `rule_values` SET `rule_value` = 'true' WHERE `rule_name` = 'Mercs:AllowMercs';
