In general, the CentOS releases will be based on more regression
tested, stable source from RHEL. Even though I publish the tools to
build backport SRPM's and RPM's myself, at https://github.com/nkadel/,
I'd encourage stable, upstream tested tools where feasible. And I'd
jump to 1.7.20, or even to the noticeable performance and integration
of 1.8.13, only if I really need some of the new features.
This is especially true of you have NFS or CIFS based home directories
and will access them with 1.8.x on one upgraded system and 1.7.x on
another system for the same working copy.
