No, Martin is saying: use the same branch across all your layers.
If you are using dora for oe-core/yocto use dora for meta-openembdedded.
If you are using master for oe-core use master for meta-openembedded
(and this usually holds true for all layers, don't mix layers and
branches). There is no busybox/busybox_1.20.2.bbappend in the dora
branch of meta-openembedded, so you're probably not up to date with the
branch.
