What difference does that make?

You can do that with a single repository using a prefix
("patches-v3.0.5") or a subdirectory ("patches/v3.0.5").
It seems to me that the only real difference is that using a single
repository makes it slightly less work for people to mirror both
"vanilla" rsync and the maintained patches while making it harder for
people to mirror one without mirroring the other (though I do not see
why that would be a requirement). I want to mirror both, so you can
guess where I stand.
