The documentation says:

Annotations for lines modified in the current revision, are marked with bold type and an asterisk.

But I think it is important to clarify that this refers to lines modified in the current revision of the file, not the current revision of the repository.

I think a clearer way to phrase this would be:

Annotations for the most recently changed lines in the file are marked with bold type and an asterisk.
