OK.  Also I see in cgit README [1], they use “cgit” even in titles.

On the other hand it feels wrong to me, because it's a name of the
program, like Guile, Guix, Linux or Emacs.  It might be better to stick
to that convention for readability (e.g. not ‘cgit’ as a command or a
file name, but as a project name “Cgit”).  And because of we rename even
configuration options like ‘scan-path’, it's OK to force the
capitalization also.  WDYT?
