What I lack in cgit is using git diff and showing extended diff headers
(and the ugly tight box around diff doesn't help either), and gitweb's
'commitdiff' view / git's git-show / git's git-format-patch.

I don't think displaying filesize slows cgit much (you need to find and
read object header for that, as this information is not present in a
tree object...

By the way, what do you think about http://git.or.cz/gitwiki/Gitweb 
page?
