Just wanted to update because the repository version is old and this release seems to be a big one.
The changes include a lot of bugfixes and the Congestion Control, which seems to help with tor speed. They also added the Onion Service Vanguard, that helps onion services. The blog post as well as the changelog can be found at: https://forum.torproject.net/t/stable-release-0-4-7-7/3108
