The main git.kernel.org page loads about half-way (without any stated errors, but it's definitely broken and not complete), but the summary pages don't seem to load at all (some projects do, but git and kernel don't - it looks like the *cache* may still be working, but anything new gets a "500 Internal Server Error").
