According to this doc string:
(defun visit-tags-table (file &optional local)
"Tell tags commands to use tags table file FILE.
FILE should be the name of a file created with the `etags' program.
A directory name is ok too; it means file TAGS in that directory.
Normally \\[visit-tags-table] sets the global value of `tags-file-name'.
With a prefix arg, set the buffer-local value instead.
you are supposed to invoke visit-tags-table manually with a numeric
argument, if you want the local value of tags-file-name set.
