Well, it means _builds_ are not inherited between them. 

Long ago we used to let branched inherit into rawhide until there was a
branched build. This turned out to cause a number of problems so we
stopped doing it. So now if you do a f36 build, you need to also make
sure to do a f37 one as well. 

I am pretty sure the wording here dates to around that time. 

I would expect that text to be in 
https://docs.pagure.org/releng/sop_mass_branching.html
but I guess it's not. I will ask...
