    55The problem is that, at least for bbPress, WordPress revisions should not be saved ''after'' updates, but ''before''. By saving them afterwards, there isn't a way to get ''ahead'' of the update to grab the old post content and store it. Hence, we end up with this off-by-one scenario where that first revision is always lost, either from the original topic/reply, or the first edit to it.

     7See the PHP Doc for `wp_save_post_revision()`:
     8
     9{{{
     10 * Creates a revision for the current version of a post.
     11 *
     12 * Typically used immediately after a post update, as every update is a revision,
     13 * and the most recent revision always matches the current post.

    716My revised patch takes what I learned from your ticket and patch, and moves some existing code around (with improvements) so that revisions simply always get saved. Yay!
