In reality, there is only one continuous "trunk". I don't understand why
timeline splits them in multiple lines. The *2 more checkins* might only
be joined because they occurred on the same day (that's just a guess).

This looks like a fossil bug(let) to me.

The following timeline shows that "trunk" in reality is a single line:
    http://core.tcl.tk/tcl/timeline?nd&n=40&r=trunk&c=2013-01-15

Yes, that's likely what happend.
