There's no simple way. A non-simple way is to look through a verbose
log for messages like

   A destination (from source:rev)

where source is the file that interests you, and destination is where it
was copied. It would be nice if messages like this showed up when you
asked for a log of source, but you'll only see them when you look at the
log for the destination: so you need to scan the log for the whole
repository to find them all.
