using_par(new, code)
using_path(new, code, add = TRUE, prepend = FALSE)

Arguments

values for setting

code

action

(for using_envvar only): should new values "replace", "suffix", "prefix" existing environmental variables with the same name.

using_env will be deprecated in devtools 1.2 and removed in devtools 1.3
