The American flag in use today was not in existence during the Revolutionary War; it was created after Hawaii became a state (the flag was adopted on July 4, 1960). The first true American flag was known as the Grand Union. This flag was a clone of the one in use today, but instead of stars in the upper left corner, there was the Union Jack, to represent Great Britain. This flag was in use during the Revolutionary War (1775-1777; so it was in use when the US declared independence). The recognized first American flag, however, is the Stars and Stripes (made by Betsy Ross). This flag was also similar to the one in use today, however, it only had 13 stars and they were arranged in a circle (one star to represent each state at the time, much like today). This flag came into use immediately after the Grand Union (1777) and was replaced in 1795. Since the American Revolution lasted from 1775-1783, both of these flags were in use during the war.
