NAME

       borg-tag - Manage tags

SYNOPSIS

       borg [common options] tag [options] [NAME]

DESCRIPTION

       Manage archive tags.

       Borg archives can have a set of tags which can be used for matching archives.

       You  can  set  the  tags  to a specific set of tags or you can add or remove tags from the current set of
       tags.

       User defined tags must not start with @ because such tags are  considered  special  and  users  are  only
       allowed to use known special tags:

       @PROT: protects archives against archive deletion or pruning.

       Pre-existing  special  tags  can  not  be  removed  via --set. You can still use --set, but you must give
       pre-existing special tags also (so they won't be removed).
