Taken from http://wiki.lyx.org/Devel/LyXGit : git remote add features g...@git.lyx.org:features.git (read/write access for developers) git remote add features git:features.git (anonymous access for users) Use git fetch features (or git fetch --all) to get updates to the feature branches. Then you should be able to checkout str-metrics. Scott
