+# The --exclude-tag options interacted incorrectly with --listed-incremental
+# since their very inception.  The testcases exclude08 through exclude16
+# verify that --exclude-tag operates consistently whether or not
+# --listed-incremental option is given.
+#
+# This testcase verifies whether the --exclude-tag option alone works
+# as expected, i.e. excludes the contents of the directory containing
+# the tag, but preserves the directory and the tag itself.
