Which "conversion script"? How to run that "conversion script"?

Well mediawiki runs the script that creates the branch for all mediawiki extensions and skins.

The make-extension-branches script in mediawiki/tools/release needed a little more TLC. I did this in the above patch. I've cleaned up the affected branches (did as soon as this was filed) and am now recreating them from the proper point and adjusting their .gitreview files as appropriate.

Will mark resolved in an hour or so when the correct branches are all on Gerrit and replicated to other places.

Thank you for trying to resolve this.

Branches created as of the core branch point for all extensions, vendor and skins. E-mail to follow to wikitech shortly.

E-mail sent. Thanks for noticing how messed up the original branches were.
