Get the code from the public mirror at github.com or repo.or.cz. Start from the README.txt file in the root directory, and follow the directions there. Access from the mirrors is read-only by git, or your can download a tar file. Access for developers uses a different git repository, see the README.txt file.

To run on real data, see the file doc/README_wps.txt from the root directory.
