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.
