Then one can go on developing in the separate repository without endangering Emacs' state as a whole. Thus, in Emacs there there would be releasable code of the package at any time. In theory, this is good. But what often happens is that people develop a package on its own, and we have trouble getting the changes into Emacs. Right now there are fixes in CC mode which have not been installed in Emacs, and that is one of the things our release is waiting for.
