Yes, they do, if there is good enough reason (security or very important
fix). We definitely don't include all fixes.
Anyway, if there are reasons to have a newer git SCL, I'm totally not
against, we can have sclo-git212.. the changes in Fedora SPEC are not
that big..

Thing is: When will git 2.9 itself be EOL? Or do upstream patches get
backported into scls as well (similar to normal packages)?

That's true, but it's a quite old collection already and I'm not sure
if it still gets updates, so it would be better to do a new one. I
know that I can use the old one for now.
Software Collections 2.3 including git 2.9.3 has been released November
2016 and its Retirement Date is November 2018. (these are the dates for
upstream Red Hat product) (git 2.9.3 itself is few months older of course)
So I think its still OK to use it for some time
