Viewing Repository "About" Tab

What is the correct way to have cgit present the "about" tab for a
given repository (for example https://git.zx2c4.com/cgit/about/)?
I am running cgit version 1.2.1 on FreeBSD 12.0-RELEASE.
Below is a slightly modified version of my /usr/local/etc/cgitrc file.
I am able to output an "about" page for the entire site using
root-readme=/usr/home/username/repos/about
but I can't get the "about" tabs to show for individual repositories.
Within the repo itself, I do have a README.md file:
Mode Name Size
-rw-r--r-- .gitignore 93
-rw-r--r-- README.md 60
Thanks
Samir
