Good point. The log definitely shows them happening with a
single commit. If copying from a workspace is the only way that
could happen, then I must have done it that way -- which would
be odd, since that's certainly not the way I normally do it.

There's only a single log entry that shows the new branch and
the addition of the new files in that branch. I believe I
posted the excerpt from the log showing that somehwere up the
thread, but I can post it again if it would illuminate anything.
