Yeah, thanks! Your answer is along the lines of what I've been thinking. Using the repo browser or hook-script. Best would probably be to introduce a hook script which forbids people to branch from an older version than was previously branched. An example of such a script would be GREATLY appreciated! Changes can otherwise get lost in production...

But, if you instruct your devs to only do branching from the repository browser it will be done from head... unless they change repo browser to show an earlier revision... but that has to be done on purpose.
