Yes, the full sha1 is not very interesting. But I'm not sure what to replace it with: the first line of annotated tags is very often identical to tag name. Maybe it should just abbreviate the sha1? > > * Nice diffstat in commit view; the diff view is better, although I > wouldn't lump from-file / to-file diff header together with git > diff header and extended git diff header. I've tried to make the diff look similar to 'git log -p' output, but I agree the first line per file is probably overkill. > > * I like the sidebar very much, although I'm not sure how it would > work for larger projects (more branches, much more tags). How do you think it works out with http://hjemli.net/git/xorg/xserver/ ? It's got an impressive number of branches and tags ;-) > Also the > search textbox is not very visible; I'd rather it have "groove" > view. Agreed, it's probably useless trying to style input-controls: the result is heavily browser/platform dependent. > * I like separate 'mirrors' section, although I think it rather > clashes badly with notion of forks (alternates).

Actually, the filtered branch/tag lists was done partly because of freedesktop.org. I think it has worked out nicely (but cgit.freedesktop.org needs to run the latest cgit). Also, the width of project descriptions is configurable, so it can take up much less space and leave room for the sidebar.
