The '''''SoftWare Hash IDentifier''''' ('''SWHID''') is a persistent identifier used to uniquely identify a particular piece of software [[source code]] and its version. SWHID is a standard similar to the [[Digital Object Identifier|DOI]], but is tailored specifically for software source code,<ref name="ProgrammingHistorianFr_preserving_identifying" /> compatible with versioning software such as [[git]].
