+# The tags cache stores information about heads and the history of tags.
+#
+# The cache file consists of two parts. The first part maps head nodes
+# to .hgtags filenodes. The second part is a history of tags. The two
+# parts are separated by an empty line.
+#
+# The first part consists of lines of the form:
+#
+# <headrev> <headnode> [<hgtagsnode>]
+#
+# <headrev> is an integer revision and <headnode> is a 40 character hex
+# node for that changeset. These redundantly identify a repository
+# head from the time the cache was written.
+#
+# <tagnode> is the filenode of .hgtags on that head. Heads with no .hgtags
+# file will have no <hgtagsnode> (just 2 values per line).
+#
+# The filenode cache is ordered from tip to oldest (which is part of why
+# <headrev> is there: a quick check of the tip from when the cache was
+# written against the current tip is all that is needed to check whether
+# the cache is up to date).
+#
+# The purpose of the filenode cache is to avoid the most expensive part
+# of finding global tags, which is looking up the .hgtags filenode in the
+# manifest for each head. This can take over a minute on repositories
+# that have large manifests and many heads.
+#
+# The second part of the tags cache consists of lines of the form:
+#
+# <node> <tag>
+#
+# (This format is identical to that of .hgtags files.)
+#
+# <tag> is the tag name and <node> is the 40 character hex changeset
+# the tag is associated with.
+#
+# Tags are written sorted by tag name.
+#
+# Tags associated with multiple changesets have an entry for each changeset.
+# The most recent changeset (in terms of revlog ordering for the head
+# setting it) for each tag is last.
