I don't know what exactly you mean by "setting", but the way
/etc/debian_version, /etc/issue and /etc/issue.net are usually handled
for point releases is explained in the base-files FAQ. See:

/usr/share/doc/base-files/FAQ

However, Debian 8.1, when released, will still be jessie.

If you use "testing" in /etc/apt/sources.list right now, then you are
already using the new testing (stretch), and whatever happens in
jessie will be mostly irrelevant for you, as you are already using
more recent software.
