Maybe  some  clarification  is  in  order  here.  This  is  specifically
referring to the manifest  (I think). If you are using the  UI and add a
tag that has ``sym-'' in its name, it won't have any special meaning.

For an example, see this manifest:

https://www.fossil-scm.org/index.html/artifact/9d39c6dca7be2796

Scroll to  the bottom and  you will see some  T-cards that have  sym- in
them.

To add such a  special tag you would have to use a  tool that allows you
to add raw tags, like ``fossil tag''
