HBASE-2473 is a new feature. 0.21 is equivalent to 0.89 and 0.90 (trunk). 0.89 are dev releases off trunk which will be release as 0.90.
0.20 branch is an old branch that will not have new features added to it, just bug fixes. All new features should be done against trunk only. http://hbaseblog.com/2010/07/04/hug11-hbase-0-90-preview-wrap-up/ There's more info about the versions in the deck on that blog post.
