This is fine, but maintaining here a duplication of the auto-generated --help message is not a great idea (it violates the DRY principle and all that). Instead of this, I suggest doing what we did for the swh-model CLI documentation, which is generated using Sphinx/Click integration.

swh/scanner/cli.py
73–74

Just the other day I was trying to use this, and couldn't.

This help string needs a description of pattern semantics and/or an example of a concrete pattern to help users.
Also, I think there is not default exclusion pattern, but if there is it should be mentioned here.

(And I also think it would be a good idea to exclude stuff like ".git" by default, but that is material for a separate diff.)

I think we should also mention that the patterns are translated into regex objects by fnmatch that uses shell-style wildcards.

I've changed this in swh-docs index as follows:

"source code scanner to analyze code bases and compare them with source code artifacts archived by Software Heritage"

can you use the same text here?

setup.py
45

as you are switching from .rst to .md (which is fine!), you should also change this to:

long_description_content_type="text/markdown",
