Hi,

the OpenMM code is still under review. You can download it using
git fetch https://gerrit.gromacs.org/gromacs refs/changes/83/1283/14 && git
checkout FETCH_HEAD
You can check https://gerrit.gromacs.org/#/c/1283/ for the latest version
of it (as of time of writing the above line gives you the latest).
