That's true for 'git show --notes=...' for example.

But how would you specify the name of the notes ref in cgit ?

Attached are two screenshots of commit notes added with 'git notes
add..' for the first line and
'git notes append...' for the second line. That particular commit also
has another note
attached in the 'refs/notes/todo' namespace.

My opinion about this topic: I really like the way cgit displays the
commit notes but not the
double "Notes" header line.
