       You can contribute to extend the content of the Software Heritage archive by submitting an origin
       save request. To do so, fill the required info in the form below:
     </p>
     <ul>
       <li><b>Origin type:</b> the type of version control system the software origin is using.<br/>
         Currently, the only supported type is <code>git</code>, for origins using <a href="https://git-scm.com/">Git</a>.<br/>
         Soon, the following origin types will also be available to save into the archive:
         <ul>
           <li><code>hg</code>, for origins using <a href="https://www.mercurial-scm.org/">Mercurial</a></li>
           <li><code>svn</code>, for origins using <a href="https://subversion.apache.org/">Subversion</a></li>
         </ul>
       </li>
       <li><b>Origin url:</b> the url of the remote repository for the software origin.<br/>
         In order to avoid saving errors from Software Heritage, you should provide the clone/checkout url
         as given by the provider hosting the software origin. <br/>It can easily be found in the
-        web interface used to browse the software origin.
+        web interface used to browse the software origin. <br/>For instance, if you want to save a <code>git</code>
+        origin into the archive, you should check that the command <code>$ git clone &lt;origin_url&gt;</code><br/>
+        does not return an error before submitting a request.
       </li>
     </ul>
     <p>
       Once submitted, your save request can either be:
     </p>
     <ul>
       <li><b>accepted:</b> a visit to the provided origin will then be scheduled by Software Heritage in order to
         load its content into the archive as soon as possible</li>
       <li><b>rejected:</b> the provided origin url is blacklisted and no visit will be scheduled</li>
       <li>put in <b>pending</b> state: a manual review will then be performed in order to determine if the
         origin can be safely loaded or not into the archive</li>
     </ul>
     <p>
       Once a save request has been accepted, you can follow its current status in the
       <a id="swh-show-origin-save-requests-list" href="#swh-origin-save-requests-list">submitted save requests list</a>.
