Hmm, I thought it was obvious, because it happens whenever you branch
a working copy with modifications. I showed the log from the
repository browser, pointing at the branch. The log contains just one
revision, the one that created the branch.

I'll create a reproduction recipe.

The WC was on revision 658 with modifications. Creating the branch
produced revision 659. Showing the log from the repobrower on the
branch only shows revision 659 because stop-on-copy is on. I then
doubleclicked on one of the modified files in the log window's file
list.

I just can't duplicate here (I have 1.2.0 at home), I just install
1.2.1 and try again.

Thanks for you efforts!
