get_description_repo

Get the DESCRIPTION file information in
 <a href="https://rdatatable.gitlab.io/data.table/reference/data.table.html">data.table</a> format for all R packages 
in standard R repositories (CRAN, Bioc).
 Can return a subset of results for specific packages as well.

Reproducibility is essential to the progress of research,
yet achieving it remains elusive even in computational fields.
Continuous Integration (CI) platforms offer a powerful way to launch automated workflows
to check and document code, but often require considerable time, effort,
and technical expertise to setup. We therefore developed the rworkflows suite
to make robust CI workflows easy and freely accessible to all R package developers.
rworkflows consists of 1) a CRAN/Bioconductor-compatible R package template,
2) an R package to quickly implement a standardised workflow, and
3) a centrally maintained GitHub Action.

<dl><dt>refs</dt>
<dd>Reference for one or more GitHub repository in owner/repo format
 (e.g.<code>"neurogenomics/rworkflows"</code>), or an R package name 
(e.g. <code>"rworkflows"</code>).</dd>
<dt>db</dt>
<dd>A <a href="https://rdatatable.gitlab.io/data.table/reference/data.table.html">data.table</a> of R package metadata generated by
biocPkgList.</dd>
<dt>repo</dt>
<dd>The requested Bioconductor repository. The default will be the
Bioconductor software repository: BioCsoft. Available repos include:
"BioCsoft", "BioCann", "BioCexp", "BioCworkflows", and "CRAN". Note
that not all repos are available for all versions, particularly older
versions (but who would use those, right?).</dd>
<dt>version</dt>
<dd>The requested Bioconductor version. Will
default to use the BiocManager defaults (i.e., <code><a href="/link/version()?package=rworkflows&version=1.0.1" data-mini-rdoc="rworkflows::version()">version()</a></code>).</dd>
<dt>verbose</dt>
