how to install Genode on PC machine

[yuqing wang]

I update the patches  I can find related to issue #593 ,some are writed by
chelmuth and some by alex-ab .But the issue still occur.
I am not familiar with Github,maybe I missed some files,I will still work
on it.
When I try to find the patches  related to issue #593,I find that the
genode source tree I downloaded two or three weeks ago is not newest.Some
patches  I finded is released three months ago,but my source tree still
have the old files.
I download genode source tree from the website
https://github.com/genodelabs/genode.
Is there a way can update the whole source tree to make it have all
patches,or is there a website where we can always get the newest genode
source tree.
Regards.
