Re: [Python-Dev] [Python-checkins] cpython (trunk): Close the "trunk" branch.
Committing reopened it
So what's the point of closing it, then? What effect does that achieve? Regards, Martin

Again, as I said, it doesn't get displayed anymore with the standard commands "hg branches" and "hg heads". Consider it a convention rather than some kind of hard stop against future commits. Regards Antoine.

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4099345/is-it-possible-to-reopen-a-closed... The closed flag is just used to filter out closed branches from hg branches and hg heads unless you use the --closed option - it doesn't prevent you from using the branches. Basically, it reduces the noise, especially if you have very branchy development like I personally prefer (a named branch per task/issue). If you only use anonymous branches, except for your feature branches (e.g. 3.2, 2.7) then you'd probably never close a branch. Tim Delaney
