What do people do with a branch after it has been merged into the trunk?
Nothing.
how about tagging the "foo" branch with "fooN" (Nth iteration) and then
tagging trunk with "cvs tag -B -F foo"?
Usually a bad idea to muck about with branch tags after they have become used.
how do you close it, i.e., stop people from committing to it?
Tell them not to do that. :-)
people make mistakes.
cvs_acls[1] may help, and it was probably in your distribution, i.e., do a
`locate cvs_acls`.
documentation for it is at [2], and perhaps could be found by `locate
cvs_acls.html`.
