log4net-1.2.x has become trunk. At one point in time we thought we'd re-structure much of log4net and call that new thing 1.3.x. I created a branch we could use if we wanted to cut bugfix releases and called that log4net-1.2.x - trunk became the development line for 1.3.x. As you know we never got traction for 1.3.x and abandoned it. I renamed the then existing trunk log4net-1.3.x (now abandoned/log4net-1.3.x) and renamed log4net-1.2.x to trunk. Looking at https://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=revision&revision=1539449 1.2.13 has been cout from that branch, the origins of 1.2.12 seem to be even more complex (there once has been a 1.2.12 branch) but I don't remember the details anymore either. 1.2.14 originates from trunk again.
