The instructions are the same; that URL now redirects to
https://savannah.gnu.org/git/?group=c-intro-and-ref

That command is for anonymous clone; no password is needed.

It looks like some SSL certificate was missing; for me, it works fine:

        $ git clone https://git.savannah.gnu.org/git/c-intro-and-ref
        Cloning into 'c-intro-and-ref'...
        warning: You appear to have cloned an empty repository.

What 'wget -O /dev/null -d https://git.savannah.gnu.org' outputs?
