+`$GIT_DIR/TAG_EDITMSG`::
+ This file contains the message of an in-progress annotated
+ tag. If `git tag` exits due to an error before creating an
+ annotated tag then the tag message that has been provided by the
+ user in an editor session will be available in this file, but
+ may be overwritten by the next invocation of `git tag`.
