It's just a matter of convenience.. I have bookmarks set for
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/emacs.git/log/?h=emacs-25,
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/emacs.git/log/ and
http://orgmode.org/cgit.cgi/org-mode.git/log/. So it is just easier/quicker
to browse through those quickly in multiple tabs in a browser.

Also, I use the search interface on cgit.. it's very powerful for my
purpose where I can search by log/author/etc.

I am not saying that git CLI/Magit/gitk/etc cannot do that.. just that cgit
helps me do this stuff pretty quickly. Some day I might find the non-brower
git commit browsing quicker.
