[jboss-dev] JBoss AS branching and next releases

[Paul Gier]

Renaming/removing the branch won't have any effect on the tags [1].  But I don't 
think renaming it to _Dead is a good idea.  If it really is dead, then why not 
just delete it?  You can always create a branch from one of the tags if you find 
that you need the branch again.
