-There are `entomologist-data` branches "in the wild" that have issues
-with tags files, so we need to migrate those somehow.
-
-We discussed a couple of ways to do this:
-
-1. Have the ent library do it automatically and transparently when it
-   comes across an old-style tags file.  In `Issue::new_from_dir()` we'd
-   detect the old format, parse it, then immediately delete the file,
-   write the new format directory, and commit the result.
-
-   This is good:
-    - It's easy for the human
-
-   This is bad:
-    - entomologist will need to carry along this crufty code until we
-      think there are no more old-style repos in existence
-
-
-2. Make a stand-alone tool (like the `set-done-time` tool in
-   <https://git.glyphs.tech/taproot-manufacturing/entomologist/pulls/27>.
-   The ent binary does *not* know how to read the old tags file, and will
-   error out if it comes across an issue with such a file.  The human
-   would then manually run the tags-representation updater tool.
-   This tool would make the git worktree, walk the issues, find the
-   old-style tags, rewrite them in the new format, and commit the result.
-
-   This is good:
-    - Keeps the core entomologist code clean and "modern".
-
-   This is bad:
-    - This tool does manual/direct manipulation of the on-disk format,
-      which means it duplicates a lot of what the entomologist library
-      does.
