I'm thinking we configure $wgExtDistBranches as follows:
$wgExtDistBranches = array( 'master', 'SNAPSHOT-for-1.21', 'SHAPSHOT-for-1.20', ... );
We can go ahead and create tags for the existing released versions to approximate snapshots of each extension as of the corresponding MediaWiki release. Extension authors can update the tag (or maybe use a branch, if they want) using the same name that we have configured.
I'm willing to bikeshed (a little) on the "SNAPSHOT-for-1.21" tag
Why not use what we already use: REL1_20 etc.
At the time, I thought it might conflict with something. However, you're probably right and it'll be easier to remember :)
