The reason is that it makes it trivial to cherry pick upstream patches on top of the Fedora branch. So I'd arrange it by having a straight mirror of upstream, then have our own 'fNN-branch' branches which contain the upstream releases (ideally from upstream tags if they are using git sensibly) + our cherry picked patches.
