I've just send a mail [1] to pgsql-general and the mailinglist archive shows
a broken link [2]. I included the correct link [3] in my message and also
received my message with the correct link from the list.

It looks like the archive percent-encodes subcomponent delimiters in the query
component. Perhaps the encoding is allowed and it's just git.postgresql.org
that can't handle it. But I'm pretty sure that links to git.postgresql.org
from the archive worked in the past.
