+# sereal: file(1) magic the Sereal binary serialization format
+#
+# From: Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason <avarab@gmail.com>
+#
+# See the specification of the format at
+# https://github.com/Sereal/Sereal/blob/master/sereal_spec.pod#document-header-format
+#
+# I'd have liked to do the byte&0xF0 matching against 0, 1, 2 ... by
+# doing (byte&0xF0)>>4 here, but unfortunately that's not
+# supported. So when we print out a message about an unknown format
+# we'll print out e.g. 0x30 instead of the more human-readable
+# 0x30>>4.
+#
+# See https://github.com/Sereal/Sereal/commit/35372ae01d in the
+# Sereal.git repository for test Sereal data.
