Major releases [i.e. 3.21.0, 3.22.0 etc.] are spun from main branch once every 6 months. And bug fix updates [i.e. 3.21.1, 3.21.2 etc.] are spun from release branch once every month [during this 6 month cycle]. i.e PetscObjectIsNull() change that's currently in main branch won't be in a tarball (or a tagged version) until 3.22.0 release in Sept end.
