forgejo-dev.freebsd.org: just a couple of notes from using it to look around a little (vs. cgit use)

[I'm not sure what list is appropriate for this.]

https://cgit.freebsd.org/src/commit/lib/libgeom/geom_xml2tree.c?id=019100de267000774c78cc92422f1d98facce966

does not do a good jobs of showing the full commit messsage and notes
for the old svn time frame commit: they are missing for me.

By contrast, looking around starting with forejo-dev.freebsd.org got
me to:

https://gitea-dev.freebsd.org/FreeBSD/FreeBSD-src/commit/019100de267000774c78cc92422f1d98facce966

and it displayed the commit message just fine.


Going in the other direction:

https://cgit.freebsd.org/src/log/

exists and is accessible via a ui selection and shows the overall commit
message one liner sequence (for main in my context).

I found that the likes of:

https://gitea-dev.freebsd.org/FreeBSD/FreeBSD-src/commits/branch/main/

works but I edited the URL to do it, as I found no UI selection that
did such. What I found for history in the UI required at least another
level below main to be involved.
