It does not state, that there are not tags. It states, that you should be using tag=. Unless, you know exactly what are you doing and unless you know what an particular tag that exists in the ports tree means. In your language: normal users of the ports tree should use tag=. as anything else is not official and not supported. Normal users can specify date= to get the version of the ports tree as it was on that date (and time, up to a second). The documentation is correct. Daniel
