As WDB said, with a manual tranny, pop it in neutral, and release the clutch, and it won't hurt anything.

However, there are a few manual trannies (not many) that require the engine to be spinning to stay lubed, so EOC (or neutral with clutch pressed) is a no-no for those. 95% of manuals are fine for EOC, however (most are lubed from the output shaft).
