so that the history is not lost. If it's lost in your case, it
really sucks. Maybe you would need to add some comment to the csrss code
files specifying the branch name and revisions when it existed.

Well since it's merged (revision 58770) and you say that the history won't
be lost, then you can sweep the branch out.
