I aqssumed(!) that the hashes would be different, so I moved aside the
repo I had from cgit-beta and cloned a new one (from git.freebsd/org),
then removed the old one once I was satisfied that the new one was OK.

A couple of caveats:
* I'm not a committer; I merely use the repo a a "source of truth" for
  updating machines locally, and I never have any commits to be pushed
  anywhere.

* I actually used "git clone --mirror" (as noted in
  https://www.catwhisker.org/~david/FreeBSD/repo-sync.html); I then
  clone from that mirror to make working copies.  There are certainly
  other ways to accomplish this; some may be better for some folks.

Peace,
david
