You wont need to remove anything. As long as you do not edit that file it will be managed by centos-release-5-7 and centos-release-cr-5-7 etc.
Well, surely those people using their own mirrors will have to do something ...
Sure, but then if someone is going to hardwire urls to point at specific content, its reasonable to expect them to manage that content locally.
the /cr/ repo isnt going to go away, the content from inside it will, so depending on how you rehash the baseurl, leave the $releasever tag in, and things should be fine. As long as you mirror the entire repo structure from centos.org
So to be clear, all you are going to do is empty the cr repo and have an empty set of repodata in its place so that yum does not throw errors. Is this correct?
If this is true, is it your plan to NOT update the centos-release-cr-5* rpm with each point release?
