A release candidate Git 1.7.8-rc4 is available for testing. This hopefully
is the last rc before the final release (we had to make a last-minute UI
tweak to a new feature in multi-step "revert" command to avoid later
regrets). We already have interesting topics queued together with proposed
fixes for older non-regression bugs which would make the next cycle short,
sweet and fun.
