Hi!

I have a proposal:
Skip several numbers and name the next release as "1.7.7".

Justification: to align with TortoiseSVN, which is 1.7.6 now.

There is a lot of "Subversion exception!" threads on users@
where TortoiseSVN version is visible. For example [1].

I think skipping those "already used" numbers will lessen confusion.
