`devel` is the main (trunk) branch. All the development (and pull requests) 
happens against that branch, and it is "cutting edge" \-- Nim built from it has 
version `0.20.99`.

`version-0-20` branch contains backported (cherry-picked) bugfixes from devel. 
Currently it is at version `0.20.1`, which will become an official released 
stable version `0.20.2` and future backported bugfixes will be `0.20.3` until 
version `0.20.4` is released, and so on. (This is how it works generally; no 
guarantee that v0.20.4 will happen - v1.0 might be released before that)

Since Nim v0.20.0 is basically v1.0RC1, the priority should be compatibility 
with the latest stable version and `version-0-20` branch.
