While busily preparing for the next release Git 1.7.10, and preparing users for upcoming new features with a few blog posts, I didn't forget people who are for whatever reason stuck in the past.
Fixes to a couple of old problems are applied to an old maitenance track and 1.7.8.5 is out.
The same fixes also appear in the 'maint' and 'master' branch, so if you are running Git from either 'maint' (which is slightly newer than 1.7.9.2 and will become 1.7.9.3) or 'master' (which will become 1.7.10 someday), you do not have to pay attention too much attention to this maintenance update ;-)
