No worries, you are the nth person to ask this :-D  It seems that the
information is not visible enough.

Go to: http://git.koolu.org/

Follow the instructions there to checkout the code.

Go to http://trac.koolu.org/ and follow the rest of the instructions.

Basically:

$ mkdir -p ~/bin
$ curl http://android.git.kernel.org/repo > ~/bin/repo
$ chmod a+x ~/bin/repo
$ mkdir ~/mydroid
$ cd ~/mydroid
$ repo init -u git://git.koolu.org/freerunner/platform/manifest.git -b koolu-1.0
$ repo sync
$ make TARGET_PRODUCT=freerunner

replace "koolu-1.0" by whatever branch you wish to work on (look at
the git repo to find out which ones are available)

Since you need that TARGET_PRODUCT variable always, I find it better to do this:

$ cat > buildspec.mk
TARGET_PRODUCT := freerunner
^D
$ make

If you wish to switch a branch, do

$ repo init -b new_branch
$ repo sync

(and likely rm -rf out)
