Yes, the status of gmane was up in the air for a while, but I think we can give it up as dead now (at least for our purposes).

Subject: README: replace gmane link with public-inbox

The general status and future of gmane is unclear at this point, but certainly it does not seem to be carrying gmane.comp.version-control.git at all anymore. Let's point to public-inbox.org, which seems to be the favored archive on the list these days (and which uses message-ids in its URLs, making the links somewhat future-proof).
