+We could give more details about how to migrate tags, but I'm not sure\r
+that it's a practical problem, or just a theoretical one.\r

++Incompatible change in SHA1 computation\r
++---------------------------------------\r
++\r
++Previously on big endian architectures like sparc and powerpc the\r
++computation of SHA1 hashes was incorrect. This meant that messages\r
++with overlong or missing message-ids were given different computed\r
++message-ids than on more common little endian architectures like i386\r
++and amd64. If you use notmuch on a big endian architecture, you are\r
++strongly advised to make a backup of your tags using `notmuch dump`\r
++before this upgrade. It should be possible to migrate the tags using a\r
++script.\r
