Right, so deleting doesn't remove anything.
I think that hiding our history like this is a bad idea, and will
lead to even more confusion - if you don't want to make a mistake and
work on a branch accidentally, don't check it out.
Anyway, I can't see how removing the branch will prevent
I agree with Geir in that I think that we should have kept the branch;
even though it is widely accepted that we will not extend it with a
patch, it's just good form to do things in a consistent standard way.
What confused me when I responded to Dain's original request was the QA
suffix.
Geir, if your statement were factually correct I would agree with
you, but we have not lost or hid any history. Go see for yourself.
$ cd tags/v1_0_M4
$ svn log project.properties

Yes, at 1 a.m. yesterday, and two responses. I didn't get to dev

I don't care what we do with M4, but for any release we plan to
maintain, I think we need to keep branches around indefinitely. If
people are going to confuse branches and tags, then I think we need to
solve that with documentation on our source page or releases page or
something.

Just to remind everyone, svn doesn't have branches or tags and
nothing is ever gone or deleted, everything is still around, and at
any point in time we can patch an old release if we feel it's really
necessary.
