 The git tag for WordPress 4.8 is on commit
 e83ff8597ad73fa019062a9e44ddea34576d2e92 which has the following
 version.php:

 {{{#!php
 <?php
 /**
  * The WordPress version string
  *
  * @global string $wp_version
  */
 $wp_version = '4.9-alpha-40885';

 /**
  * Holds the WordPress DB revision, increments when changes are made to
 the WordPress DB schema.
  *
  * @global int $wp_db_version
  */
 $wp_db_version = 38590;

 /**
  * Holds the TinyMCE version
  *
  * @global string $tinymce_version
  */
 $tinymce_version = '4603-20170530';

 /**
  * Holds the required PHP version
  *
  * @global string $required_php_version
  */
 $required_php_version = '5.2.4';

 /**
  * Holds the required MySQL version
  *
  * @global string $required_mysql_version
  */
 $required_mysql_version = '5.0';
 }}}


 ```
 The 4.8 release should probably be tagged on the 4.8 branch on commit
