If you have not synced your database to somewhere else:
monotone db execute "DELETE FROM revision_certs WHERE id = 'W' AND name
= 'branch';"
monotone cert W branch prj.working
If you have synced your database to somewhere else:
There's not really a good way. The closest is:
"monotone disapprove W -b prj.release"
Merge branch prj.release .
but I think it won't be happy when you eventually do decide to merge a
decendant of W into the release branch.
