Software Heritage loaders#

A loader is a software component used to ingest content into the Software Heritage archive.

Only version control systems and package managers with their own loader are enumerated below; see also the Software Origins for a list including listers (eg. for forges and package managers aggregating external packages).

This page references all available loaders and links to their high-level documentation.
