What you wanted to know about Software Heritage, and never dared to ask

You have a question about Software Heritage, and look for an answer? We are delighted to announce that starting from today you can refer to a new, rich and evolving FAQ page.  

In 2021, we gathered 19 ambassadors who helped identify the most recurring questions in their community regarding software source code archival, and this resulted in a very rich and detailed collaborative document. With the team, we curated the questions, collected answers and structured all this into a coherent document.

In 2021 we organized three mini-sprints that were dedicated to the Software Heritage documentation and helped us create different pages to help people when visiting, using or contributing to the Software Heritage project.

As a result, now you have access to a broad panel of resources about Software Heritage, that complement the FAQ page:

You too can get involved and help in this documentation effort: there is a tutorial that explains how to contribute to the documentation and one of the projects in the outreachy program is “Extend the developer and user documentation of Software Heritage”.
