Managing custom cookbooks in a chef repo


I was wondering how Chef users organize custom cookbooks with relation to the main Chef repository. I started a repository based on a blank Chef Repo, and then installed custom cookbooks into the chef repo (i.e. the cookbook code is managed in the chef repo codebase). It's becoming a bit unmanageable though - especially when we want to work on different versions of a cookbook, and I'm wondering if it makes more sense to create independent cookbook projects and then pull in the cookbooks with Berkshelf - what's recommended in terms of best practises and how are you doing it?
