-- Entities constitute a typed hierarchy of organization, hosting
-- facilities, groups, people and software projects.
--
-- Examples of entities: Software Heritage, Debian, GNU, GitHub,
-- Apache, The Linux Foundation, the Debian Python Modules Team, the
-- torvalds GitHub user, the torvalds/linux GitHub project.
--
-- The data model is hierarchical (via the parent attribute) and might
-- store sub-branches of existing entities. The key feature of an
-- entity is might be *listed* (if it is available in listable_entity)
-- to retrieve information about its content, i.e: sub-entities,
-- projects, origins.

-- The history of entities. Allows us to keep historical metadata
-- about entities.  The temporal invariant is the uuid. Root
-- organization uuids are manually generated (and available in
-- swh-data.sql).
--
-- For generated entities (generated = true), we can provide
-- generation_metadata to allow listers to retrieve the uuids of previous
-- iterations of the entity.
--
-- Inactive entities that have been active in the past (active =
-- false) should register the timestamp at which we saw them
-- deactivate, in a new entry of entity_history.
