In the OpenStack community, we will put a final commit on HEAD of the

Not sure. It would mean that `emerge --sync` will replace all ebuilds
with a README file that user might not even notice. I suppose
an explicit "repository not found" error may be better here.
You could potentially use a bit of an attention-getter, like a system
package with a stable --99999 version on all arches that just dies
loudly. Maybe sys-apps/portage? I'm not sure if you can override a
profile in an overlay but masking everything in default would also do
the trick if that works.
