hi

as suggested in: http://www.gromacs.org/Developer_Zone/Roadmap/GROMACS_4.6

i do:

prompt> git clone git://git.gromacs.org/gromacs.git

and then:

prompt> git checkout --track -b release-4-6 origin/release-4-6
fatal: Not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git

if cd to gromacs directory first:

prompt> cd gromacs
prompt> git checkout --track -b release-4-6 origin/release-4-6
Branch release-4-6 set up to track remote branch release-4-6 from origin.

Already up-to-date.

i am not sure if this is what i want ... the source i have there is still 4.5.5 
or is it not?

You have correctly switched to the release-4-6 branch with the second approach. You need to be in the "gromacs" directory (which has a .git subdirectory with all sorts of information) in order to switch branches.

... nothing seems to have been downloaded after the first command ...
how do i get the source of the 4.6 development branch?

You should have it. In CMakeLists.txt, PROJECT_VERSION should be set to "4.6-dev" so you can check that.

is there a way to simply get a tar-ball ?


Not sure. There used to be a public repository with tarballs available for each commit, but I don't know if that still exists. You should have what you're looking for though.
