replicating event and the model passed into it

[spspasov]

Hey all,

I've been using the replicating event on models for some time now, but I recently had to extend the logic and do some work when a model gets replicated.

Much to my surprise, turns out the replicated model gets passed to the event, not the model that's, well, being replicated.

Is it confusing to anyone else?

For reference, this is the PR that added the event:

https://github.com/laravel/framework/pull/28077/files

As you can see here:

https://github.com/laravel/framework/pull/28077/files#diff-9a5c2ebd8e090a8b2bffdd26cd58bbfddf07f39f98beaf89f7c9bd454ab187acR1179

The event is fired from the new, replicated instance, instead of the original model which is actually the one being replicated. The name replicating is confusing as one would assume the model that actually gets replicated would fire the event.

Ideas?
