Why are you needing to do this?

Granted, not many people should need to look at what was in FC-1 much,
but it's possible there could be something there someone would want to
look at, and now all the files in there are marked dead, so it's more
of a chore to get them to look at. 

Perhaps we could look at archiving off all those old branches if they
are causing a problem?
