Is there a free-world [0] equivalent to GHTorrent [1] for storing git ephemera [2]?

PS: @resist1984 You quoted a very good URL for the ethics of github recently (IIRC) - could you remind me (us) of the URL please? (It was incomplete though, without mentioning the racist action of excluding people from some countries.)
@resist1984 @VickyRampin @switchingsoftware @codeberg
Excellent :))). Thanks!
That's now in the footnote on page 15:
https://upload.disroot.org/r/PaJyxAQD#MTpx0hT9hFx0qqJ6gF90NNgWen4FUPvO97O7kvwWuqs=
Commit dc06405 (or a variation on it) should appear in the final
https://arxiv.org/abs/2006.03018 version, i.e. a postprint, if my pull request https://codeberg.org/maneage/paper-concept/pulls/2 is accepted.
PS: The first link in the git.sdf.org list is archived at:

@boud @codeberg @switchingsoftware @VickyRampin i love the way you did your footnotes, using superscripts for hyperlinks at the bottom of the page & bracketed references to MLA/APA citations at the end. A also love the code listings; great idea to color the comments gray inside of a verbatim environment. Is the tex file published anywhere? It would be cool to use the attachfile pkg to embed a copy of the latex code in the pdf.
@VickyRampin @switchingsoftware @codeberg @boud i think it would go along with your thesis. Couple anomalies: the superscripts use the same numbering system as the citations, and there are conflicts (citation 38 can be confused with superscript 38). Starting citation numbers at 100 would fix that. It's good that you give an archive link on 38, but archive.today is a cloudflare site that redirects to another. I suggest archive.org
@boud @codeberg @switchingsoftware @VickyRampin the best would be to have a software heritage link, but unfortunately SWH has not archived sdf.org yet
@boud @codeberg @switchingsoftware @VickyRampin If it were my paper, I would list the archive.org URL alone & omit the original site because the archive.org URL includes the original URL.

SWH archives on request. Is there an ethical or political conflict between sdf.org and SWH?

@boud @VickyRampin @switchingsoftware @codeberg thanks for adding it to that list. I didn't know specific repos could be requested, so i've added the whole list of forges to this page: https://wiki.softwareheritage.org/wiki/Suggestion_box:_source_code_to_add
@VickyRampin @switchingsoftware @codeberg @boud I suppose you might have chosen archive.today over archive.org because of the shorter URL. Archive.today is an exclusive walled garden, while archive.org is a #ALA (american library assoc.) member that respects ALA principles & grants access to all. Note as well that archive.today is protectionist & blocks the archive.org bot, yet #archive.org does not block the archive.today bot.
