If you copy a file in SVN you copy its history too. But the default
setting in TSVN's ShowLog is to 'Stop on copy', which means that when
you look at the history, it only goes back to the branch point. The
reason for this is that when you are looking at a real branch of a
project, mostly you only want to see the history of that branch. To see
the whole history in ShowLog you need to unselect the 'Stop on copy'
checkbox and click on 'Get All'.
