We’ve been periodically branching swift-4.0-branch from master, per:

  https://swift.org/blog/swift-4-0-release-process/ 
<https://swift.org/blog/swift-4-0-release-process/>

The last re-branching from master to swift-4.0-branch will be June 1.

Changes will continue to be pulled into Swift 4 after that date, but the intent 
is for Swift 4 then to be in gradual convergence and to allow master to 
incorporate changes that will be included in future releases.

As far as feature work is concerned, the goal is that swift-4.0-branch contains 
the bulk of language and Standard Library changes core to the release by 
early/mid May.

Strictly additive features to the Standard Library and other parts of Swift may 
be considered for addition to Swift 4 even later, depending on the reward/risk 
they add to the release.
