About

Software Heritage is an ambitious nonprofit, entirely Free/Open-Source Software (FOSS) initiative that aims at collecting, organising, preserving for the very long term, and sharing all publicly available software in source code form, together with the corresponding complete development history where available. In this two-part video tutorial, we provide guidance on archiving legacy source code in the Software Heritage universal source code archive. By legacy, we mean any source code which has not been developed with a modern versioning system such as Git. This process, called SWHAP (Software Heritage Acquisition Process), was initially designed by the University of Pisa and Software Heritage, and was later further developed by Software Heritage and Inria.
