+### Kubernetes tags
+
+As of October 2017, client-go is still a mirror of
+[k8s.io/kubernetes/staging/src/client-go](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/tree/master/staging/src/k8s.io/client-go),
+the code development is still done in the staging area. Since Kubernetes 1.8
+release, when syncing the code from the staging area, we also sync the Kubernetes
+version tags to client-go, prefixed with "kubernetes-". For example, if you check
+out the `kubernetes-v1.8.0` tag in client-go, the code you get is exactly the
+same as if you check out the `v1.8.0` tag in kubernetes, and change directory to
+`staging/src/k8s.io/client-go`. The purpose is to let users quickly find matching
+commits among published repos, like
+[sample-apiserver](https://github.com/kubernetes/sample-apiserver),
+[apiextension-apiserver](https://github.com/kubernetes/apiextensions-apiserver),
+etc. The Kubernetes version tag does NOT claim any backwards compatibility
+guarantees for client-go. Please check the [semantic versions](#versioning) if
+you care about backwards compatibility.
