[llvm-dev] LLVM 8.0.0 Release

[Brian Cain via llvm-dev]

Josh,

That's the expected behavior.  The release version is changed in advance
such that the trunk reflects the next release version.

If you want to use 8.0.0 source, you can download the source tarballs or
use the git tag that reflects the 80_release branch commit(s).  I believe
that tag is "llvmorg-8.0.0" .
