With distros it's always a question of stability vs bleeding edge. It's not possible to have git builds every day and guarantee enterprise stability at the same time. CentOS and RHEL are distributions that prefer enterprise stability to the latest versions of all packages. If you, however, want newer version of some package, you can still download its source code and build it from there. Or use a distribution that packages only the fresh new stuff out there.
