The first must be issued in a directory where you have already checked
out mymodule and tags the revisions you have checked out.  The second
does not require that you have mymodule checked out (and will, in fact,
ignore it completely if you have) and will tag the most recent revision
on the trunk, which is something you almost never want to do because you
don't have any way of knowing for sure which revision that is.
