This makes a great deal of sense to me, and is probably the way I'll start
working now that I know it's okay to do so.
What mechanism is recommended for the actual re-creation of HEAD during code
freeze, though? It's fairly obvious how to delete files out of HEAD (and I like
the idea of leaving only a README.txt there), but when it's time to rebuild
HEAD do I use an import or just "cvs add" the files?
Also....do we care about the fact that HEAD will no longer have a comprehensive
revision history of the main trunk of development for the module? (Maybe that
isn't a question that can be answered "globally" for all...but I'm looking for
opinions from others.)
Thanks for the suggestion.
