If you inspect the S20191118194249 repository:
You will find it is a composite repo of these TWO repositories:
This is because when Orbit switched from the old CVS system to the new Orbit Recipes system, not all bundles from the old CVS-based system were re-implemented as Orbit Recipes. So we have a composite repository of the "last good" CVS-based repo and the latest Orbit Recipes generated repo.
The "last good" CVS-based repo has a recent date because occasionally changes are made to it (e.g.: removing bundles for which updates were contributed as an Orbit Recipe, or re-signing bundles whose certificates have expired.)
I hope this answers your question.
