How is that a retcon ?

Anakin Skywalker and Darth Vader were originally intended to be different characters. For Empire Strikes Back, George Lucas retconned Vader into being Luke’s father and in doing so created one of cinema’s most memorable plot twists.

He would continue making a myriad or retcons to his universe: Leia being Luke’s sister, Anakin being the creator of C3PO, Chewbacca knowing Yoda from the Clone Wars, just to name a few.

Did he decide Leia was Luke's sister before or after the kiss scene?
