I have fixed the outdated links now. There are several other things in
those instructions that seem dated -- perhaps not factually wrong, but
they look odd in 2023.

(Hmm, one thing that does seem wrong is that we no longer offer
individual repos under git.postgresql.org; AFAIR we tell people to rely
on external providers such as github/gitlab for that.)
