When the company I worked for was in the process of being acquired, our codebase was frozen as well. I'm pretty sure this is just standard practice, no?

My previous experience of this was:

1. No user facing feature releases for the time being the deal being agreed and becoming effective (plenty of backend systems, performance optimisations, etc. still got released)

2. Don't touch anything on the day of the deal, in fact, take a free day off.

3. No major feature removals for 3 months after the deal.
