the "request to work on branch" is the catch: he wants to ensure that
students can never mess up trunk


You could achieve a "safety net", but preventing a student from
intentionally pushing changes to trunk is possible.

 Set trunk as private. Then students clone the master repo with "fossil
clone --private URL localrepo.fossil". Then when they create their dev
branches, they "fossil publish mybranch".

In fact, your friend could provide a script to do the clone, start the
branch and publish the branch.

thanks. I will notify my colleague of this proposal. maybe that fits his needs.
