Where does cmus keep its library and cache files?

0

I just started using the cmus console music player. man cmus-tutorial tells how to add music to its "library", and says:

Note: cmus does not move, duplicate or change your files. It just remembers where they are and caches the metadata (duration, artist, etc.)

Where does it "remember" this, in case I want to reset it?

~/.cmus or ~/.config/cmus

I'd seen some references to ~/.cmus, but apparently the newer versions put things in ~/.config/cmus.

Actually, it shows this at the top of the screen in the library and playlist views, I just hadn't noticed.
