repository-management: Add a Repository
Description
Add a repository to the set of currently available repositories. This is
effectively an easier-to-use wrapper over interacting with the
"repos" option, which is otherwise set with options(repos = ...).
Usage
repos_add(..., overwrite = FALSE)
repos_add_local(..., overwrite = FALSE)
repos_set(...)
repos_set_local(...)
repos_remove(names)
repos_list()
Arguments
...
Named arguments of the form = . overwrite
Boolean; overwrite if a repository with the given name
already exists?
names
The names of repositories (as exist in e.g.
names(getOption("repos"))).
Details
repos_add_local is used for adding file-based repositories; that is,
CRAN repositories that live locally on disk and not on the internet / local network.
