history_swh {contentid}

return the history of archive events of a given software repository

Description

Note that unlike the generic history method, SWH history is repo-specific rather than content-specific. An archive event adds all content from the repo to the Software Heritage archival snapshot at once. Any individual file can still be referenced by its content identifier.
