Run 'svn log -v -q' and parse out 'filename (from some/branch:123)'.
The '(from...)' tells you where it came from and the name it was called.
Then continue parsing on that.

Run 'svn log -v -q --stop-on-copy ...' on a known branched file/dir and
look at the last entry to see what I'm talking about.
