Version 7 can be found here :
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/266761/match=patch+v7+0+4

Changes In this version :

sha1_file.c
* sha1_object_info_extended() can now accept object_info *oi with 
oi->typename without needing a oi->typep.
* Changes in parse_sha1_header_extended() to make the code more organized.

cat-file.c
* Rephrasing of the '--literally' option.
* cat_one_file() only uses oi.typename for case 't' and oi.sizep for 
case 's'.

t1006
* Changed the size of bogus type from 0 to strlen(bogus_content).

Documentation
* Rephrasing of the explanation for '--literally' option.

Suggestion's given by Eric Sunshine and Junio Hamano.
