The best way I know of to lock or protect a branch is the commitinfo file.
You can create a script that gets executed every time a commit operation is
performed.  Within that script, you could add any type of policy enforcement
you wish.  For example, in our organization, we have a "commit filter" that
executes every time a commit operation is performed.  

This script validates the branch and ensures that the person has permission
to check into the branch.

Hope this helps.

Matt

Hi all,

Could someone tell me is there a way to lock a branch (instead of files) ? 

Thanks,

I am employed by a large aerospace company whose management has been
fooled by the sales staff at some of the large CM tools company.  [e.g.
Rational ClearCase and Continuus]  Does anyone have any CVS "sales"
material I could use to help persuade them otherwise?

Thanks,
