These ephemera are not part of the Git commit history of a software project, but add wider context and understanding beyond the commit history itself, and provide a record that could be used to allocate intellectual credit. For these reasons, the \emph{Investigating \& Archiving the Scholarly Git Experience} (IASGE) project proposes that the ephemera should be archived along with the Git repositories themselves\footnote{\inlinecode{\href{https://investigating-archiving-git.gitlab.io/updates/define-scholarly-ephemera}{https://investigating-archiving-git.gitlab.io/updates/}}\\\inlinecode{\href{https://investigating-archiving-git.gitlab.io/updates/define-scholarly-ephemera}{define-scholarly-ephemera}}}. -While Github is controversial for practical and ethical reasons\footnote{\inlinecode{\href{https://git.sdf.org/humanacollaborator/humanacollabora/src/branch/master/github.md}{https://git.sdf.org/humanacollaborator/humanacollabora/src/}}\\\inlinecode{\href{https://git.sdf.org/humanacollaborator/humanacollabora/src/branch/master/github.md}{branch/master/github.md}} (archive: \inlinecode{\url{https://archive.today/5twQ6}})}, it is currently in wide use, and appears to be the first git repository hoster for which the ephemera are being preserved, by the GHTorrent project\footnote{\inlinecode{\url{https://ghtorrent.org}}}. +While Github is controversial for practical and ethical reasons\footnote{\inlinecode{\href{https://web.archive.org/web/20210613150610/https://git.sdf.org/humanacollaborator/humanacollabora/src/branch/master/github.md}{https://web.archive.org/web/20210613150610/https://git.sdf}\\\inlinecode{\href{https://web.archive.org/web/20210613150610/https://git.sdf.org/humanacollaborator/humanacollabora/src/branch/master/github.md}{.org/humanacollaborator/humanacollabora/src/branch/master/}}\\\inlinecode{\href{https://web.archive.org/web/20210613150610/https://git.sdf.org/humanacollaborator/humanacollabora/src/branch/master/github.md}{github.md}}}}, it is currently in wide use, and appears to be the first git repository hoster for which the ephemera are being preserved, by the GHTorrent project\footnote{\inlinecode{\url{https://ghtorrent.org}}}. The GHTorrent project tracks the public Github ``event timeline'', downloads all ``contents and their dependencies, exhaustively'', and provides database files of all the material. A particular complication that will need to be dealt with by projects such as GHTorrent is the copyright of the git hoster on the particular format and creative choices in style in which the ephemera are provided for downloading. |
