How to add comments to an Exuberant Ctags config file?

Question

What character can I use to put comments in an Exuberant Ctags .ctags file?

I would like to add comments with explanations, and perhaps to disable some rege

As @joeytwiddle points out, comments are not supported by the parser, but there is a work-around.

Example .ctags file:

--regex-C=/$x/x/x/e/ The ctags parser currently doesn't support comments
--regex-C=/$x/x/x/e/ This is a work-around which works with '/' characters
--regex-C=/$x/x/x/e/ http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10973224/how-to-add-comments-to-an-exuberant-ctags-config-file
--regex-C=/$x/x/x/e/ 
--regex-C=/$x/x/x/e/ You can add whatever comment text you want here.
