There's really not much more to it than the rename. When I had to
re-roll the conversion to fix the repeatability of it, there were 1-2
persons complaining loudly because they couldn't fix their repo to
rebase their changes on the new tree. Because of that, the "official"
state of the repo was demoted to "beta" so that it was somewhat clear
that this is maybe not the final and stable conversion.

As it has been stable for quite some time now, we changed the name
back to git.freebsd.org

Cheers,
Uli
