Cool!  Excited to get the new report.

I do not know these.  However, I am confused how to use them.  For
instance, clicking to a random orange link:

<https://archive.softwareheritage.org/browse/origin/directory/?origin_url=https://guix.gnu.org/sources.json&timestamp=2021-04-27T16:01:28Z>

which points to a snapshot of the Git repo of Guix.  I would be
interesting to know what does it mean “partial”.  And read the log.
Well, let roam on #swh-devel. ;-)
