Yes, that's probably true. I'm not quite sure when I have to submit a
svn update. I have to read more in "the book". So I could have done
something that produced the strange behaviour (see below)

I've not managed to reproduce the problem again. It's working as
expected. I get only one "A" when I copy from trunk to a branch, and svn
log --stop-on-copy stops at the same point for the directory and a file
in the directory. So I must have done something wrong before. In future
I will investigate more on my own before I post a problem.
BTW, I've tried to search the list before posting, but as I said in my
original message, the search function seems to be broken. I never see
newer messages as abt Oct 2003 in search results.
Sorry for all that noise,
Wolfgang
