This is usually a permission problem: cgit needs to stat a few files
in the repo and read the content of HEAD when "opening" the repo, and
if this fails you'll get the quoted error message. Since cgit is
executed by your webserver, you'll have to make sure that the
webserver user account has read-access to the repositories.
