borg-tag(1)

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