tags are assigned to different scans; as usual they are simple text information.
for example you might tag a scan with "before_upgrade"
and then a later one with "after_upgrade".
by looking the data for each tag you can deduct information
on what has changed.
or tags could be "testin", "production", etc.

yes, exactly.

again. you are correct. read persmission errors of individual files
should defintely be stored in there.

it's one of the hash values that should be stored.
git refers internally to file contents by a hash.
you can see these values, for example, via "git hash-object filename"
the way they are computed is well-known: prepend "blob ", the filesize,
and a NUL character to the content and compute the SHA-1.
this is a useful hash to have, because it allows reverse search
of files, based on their presence in a git repo.
