Use the --stop-on-copy option to svn log to determine what revision
you copied the branch from. Example:

$ svn log http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/branches/1.5.x/ --stop-on-
copy -r 1:HEAD --limit 1

r29081 | hwright | 2008-01-30 12:01:24 -0600 (Wed, 30 Jan 2008) | 2
lines

Create the release branch for release 1.5.0.

So we now know that the 1.5.x branch of Subversion was created in
r29081.
