Accessing git.postgresql.org fails
This is ok:
git clone ssh://git@gitmaster.postgresql.org/postgresql.git
But this fails:
--------------------------------------------------------
$ git clone ssh://git@git.postgresql.org/postgresql.git
Cloning into 'postgresql'...
Permission denied on repository for user ishii
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.
Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.
--------------------------------------------------------
Is accessing git.postgresql.org wrong and should we access
gitmaster.postgresql.org instead?

That's the thing to use if you're a committer.
But this fails:
$ git clone ssh://git@git.postgresql.org/postgresql.git
Per [1]https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Working_with_Git, the recommended git URL for non-committers is
https://git.postgresql.org/git/postgresql.git
not ssh:. I'm not sure that ssh: has ever worked --- wouldn't it
require an account on the target machine?

That's correct.
ssh works if you have committer access on the repo at git.postgresql.org.
Since the main postgresql.git repo there is a mirror only, nobody has
commit access there, so it doesn't work (but there are other repos hosted
on the same server that does have committers). But for the postgresql.git
repo, it has never worked on that server.

I know. My point is, if ssh://git@git.postgresql.org/postgresql.git
does not work for even committers, shouldn't descriptions at:
https://git.postgresql.org/gitweb/?p=postgresql.git;a=summary be
changed?

description This is the main PostgreSQL git repository.

I think:
ssh://git@git.postgresql.org/postgresql.git
needs to be changed to:
ssh://git@gitmaster.postgresql.org/postgresql.git
