# remotes 2.5.0
|
|
|
|
* `install_github()` now uses credentials from the git
|
|
credential store, if `GITHUB_PAT` and `GITHUB_TOKEN` are not set.
|
|
* The `Remotes` field in `DESCRIPTION` now accepts explicit package names:
|
|
`<pkgname>=<type>::<username>/<repo>` (#719, @heavywatal).
|
|
* `dev_package_deps()` now works for packages with `Enhances` dependencies
|
|
(#711, @maksymiuks).
|
|
* `install_dev()` now ignores a trailing slash (#692, @krlmlr).
|
|
* System requirements now support Ubuntu 22.04.
|
|
* `local_package_deps()` now errors for non-existent directories
|
|
(#772, @MatthieuStigler).
|
|
|
|
# remotes 2.4.2
|
|
|
|
* Gábor Csárdi is now the maintainer.
|
|
* `bioc_version()` now points to the most recent (2021-10-27) Bioconductor
|
|
release, `v3.14` (@stufield, #664).
|
|
* Fix regex to handle user names in URL in `git_remote`, add regression tests (@achimgaedke, #646).
|
|
|
|
# remotes 2.4.1
|
|
|
|
* pkgbuild is no longer accidentally loaded even in standalone mode (#548)
|
|
* The internal GitHub token used to increase rate limits has been regenerated.
|
|
* Using `remote_package_name.git2r_remote` now passes credentials when looking up the package `DESCRIPTION` (#633, @rnorberg)
|
|
* Using `remote_package_name.git2r_remote` and `remote_package_name.xgit_remote`, http responses returning an invalid `DESCRIPTION` or that redirect to another page will now fallback to return `NA` instead of throwing an error when trying to parse the unexpected content (#628, @dgkf).
|
|
* Fix regex that breaks git protocol in `git_remote` (@niheaven #630).
|
|
* Clarify `github_pull()` documentation (@ms609 #640).
|
|
|
|
# remotes 2.4.0
|
|
|
|
* Re-license as MIT. (#551)
|
|
* Fix bug in install_bioc() when using version='devel'. The code will now pull from the git HEAD, not a branch named 'HEAD' (@bbimber, #612).
|
|
|
|
* skip tests for `download.file(method = "internal")`, on R > 4.1, since that method is now defunct on those versions.
|
|
|
|
* `system_requirements()` now works as intended if only the `os` argument is used (@mdneuzerling, #609)
|
|
|
|
* `remote_package_name.git2r_remote` and `remote_package_name.xgit_remote` now get correct package name from HTTP(S) git repo's `DESCRIPTION` file, and thus package's `DESCRIPTION` file's `Remotes` field could have `git::http(s)://<host>/<username>/<repo>[.git][@ref]` items that install remote packages using git via HTTP(S) protocol (@niheaven, #603).
|
|
|
|
# remotes 2.3.0
|
|
|
|
## Major changes
|
|
|
|
* `install_*()` functions will no longer fail by default if there warnings from `install.packages()`. Concretely the default value of `R_REMOTES_NO_ERRORS_FROM_WARNINGS` has changed to `true` from the previous value of `false`. (#403)
|
|
|
|
## Minor improvements and fixes
|
|
|
|
* `install_bioc()` now respects the environment variable R_BIOC_VERSION, and will use the git branch corresponding to this Bioconductor version (@bbimber, #580).
|
|
|
|
* remotes without package names are now unconditionally installed (#532, @jakubkovac)
|
|
|
|
* It is now possible to specify a custom host for dependencies listed in the `DESCRIPTION` file with `Remotes: <type>[@host]::<username>/<repo>[@ref]`. The `ref` now supports `/` in it for `GitLab` repositories as it did for `GitHub`repositories. (@dagola, #448)
|
|
|
|
* Internal `package2remote()` function now supports local remotes created by pak.
|
|
|
|
* `github_pat()` will now check if `GITHUB_TOKEN` is set if it cannot find `GITHUB_PAT`. (@coatless)
|
|
|
|
* `system_requirements()` now supports querying released packages as well as development dependencies (#545)
|
|
|
|
* `system_requirements()` now supports OS name + version in the `os` argument (#549, @krlmlr).
|
|
|
|
# remotes 2.2.0
|
|
|
|
## New functions and features
|
|
|
|
* New `system_requirements()` function to query the Public RStudio Package Manager for system requirements for a package (and its dependencies)
|
|
|
|
* Remotes functions can now install dependencies from additional DESCRIPTION fields, e.g. passing `dependencies = "Config/Needs/website"` will install the dependencies listed in the `Config/Needs/website: ` field in the package's DESCRIPTION.
|
|
Prefixing fields with `Config/Needs` allows them to pass `R CMD check` without a NOTE, so it is the recommended format for these extra dependencies.
|
|
|
|
* `install_*()` family of functions now use the default branch in the repository, not the `master` branch (@MyKo101,#508).
|
|
|
|
## Minor improvements and fixes
|
|
|
|
* Internal functions `remote_download()`, `remote_metadata()`, `remote_package_name()` and `remote_sha()` are now exported, so 3rd party packages could provide methods for new remote types (#509, #56)
|
|
|
|
* Internal functions `add_metadata()`, `github_remote()` are now exported. They are mainly for 3rd party extensions and should not be used by most users (#485).
|
|
|
|
* `install_version()` now keeps searching subsequent repositories for the requested version, rather than failing if the version it finds in an early repository is unsuitable. (#305, @kenahoo)
|
|
|
|
* `install_version()` now understands specifications like '>= 1.0' or '>= 1.12.0, < 1.14' to install the first version of the package it can find that satisfies the criteria. (#305, @kenahoo)
|
|
|
|
* `install_version()` now avoids use of `base::url()`, as prior to R 3.6.2 it had a bug when downloading large files (#463)
|
|
|
|
* `parse_submodules()` internal regular expression is now PCRE 2 compatible (#502, @jan-glx)
|
|
|
|
* `update_packages()` argument `force` has been deprecated and no longer has any effect (#521)
|
|
|
|
* Another fix for the mixed binary and source dependency issue, it should hopefully be fully squashed now (#296)
|
|
|
|
* The upgrade menu is now interruptible in RStudio (#489).
|
|
|
|
* Internal GitHub functions now correctly handle cases when characters are not representable in the default locale, but are representable in UTF-8 (#492).
|
|
|
|
# remotes 2.1.1
|
|
|
|
## Minor improvements and fixes
|
|
|
|
* Installing mixed binary and source dependencies when the latest versions of
|
|
some packages do not have binaries yet should now install dependencies in the
|
|
correct order to prevent load failures (#296)
|
|
|
|
* `github_error()` now also works when a GitHub (Enterprise) server does not
|
|
return information about the rate limit (@dpprdan, #396, #413).
|
|
|
|
* `install_gitlab` passes the `quiet` argument on to `gitlab_pat` (@michaelchirico, #437)
|
|
|
|
* `remotes` is now resilient against installed packages that declare
|
|
`RemoteType: standard` but do not include a `RemoteRepos` or `RemotePkgType`
|
|
field. In such a case, the values for `getOption("repos")` and
|
|
`getOption("pkgType")` will be used (respectively).
|
|
|
|
* `install_gitlab()` now installs from repositories in subgroups and with dots
|
|
in their name. `subdir` is now an explicit argument instead of implicit in
|
|
`repo` (@robertdj, #259, #420).
|
|
|
|
* `install()` now passes the ellipsis `...` to `install_deps()` (@Neil-Schneider, #411)
|
|
|
|
* The tests have been updated to work with newer versions of callr and R 4.0
|
|
|
|
# remotes 2.1.0
|
|
|
|
## New features
|
|
|
|
* `install_*()` functions gain `build_manual` and `build_vignette` arguments
|
|
that previously existed in devtools versions < 2.0 (#353).
|
|
|
|
* The interactive menu has been modified to provide more clear instructions on
|
|
the skipping behavior (#207)
|
|
|
|
* Credentials are now passed via HTTP headers, to reduce exposure when requests
|
|
fail (#391).
|
|
|
|
## Minor improvements and fixes
|
|
|
|
* `download()` with the external curl download method now always uses `-L` to
|
|
follow redirects. (#350)
|
|
|
|
* `update_packages()` now has a more informative error message when the update
|
|
fails (#223, #232)
|
|
|
|
* `install_git()` now can take credentials from the global option
|
|
`remotes.git_credentials` (#378).
|
|
|
|
* `install_git()` now works with SHA references and external git (#389).
|
|
|
|
* GitHub remotes that point to branches no longer fail when the branch is later
|
|
deleted (#274).
|
|
|
|
* Local remotes whose original location has been moved will no longer error
|
|
when updating (#370).
|
|
|
|
* `update_deps()` no longer sorts the dependencies alphabetically (#296, #301)
|
|
|
|
* `github_resolve_ref()` now takes a `host` parameter (#284)
|
|
|
|
* Remotes specific environment variables now accept 0 and 1 as valid values (#238)
|
|
|
|
* remotes now uses locking by default when installing binary packages, which avoids
|
|
issues when installing binaries that are already open in other R processes
|
|
(#368)
|
|
|
|
* `update_deps()` no longer fails if a local package no longer exists (#289)
|
|
|
|
* `install_version()` now errors with a more informative message when `type` is
|
|
not 'source' (#323)
|
|
|
|
* Bioc `remote_sha()` now always returns a character result (#379)
|
|
|
|
* Fix API call for private repositories in `install_gitlab`
|
|
(@aornugent, #359, #363)
|
|
|
|
* git submodules now work if the submodule file is empty (@muschellij2, #234)
|
|
|
|
* git submodules now work if the R package is stored in a subfolder (@pommedeterresautee, #233)
|
|
|
|
* `install_gitlab()` no longer adds the access token twice to the request
|
|
(@aornugent, #363).
|
|
|
|
* Bitbucket dependencies now actually use the `BITBUCKET_USER` and
|
|
`BITBUCKET_PASSWORD` environment variables (@antoine-sachet, #347).
|
|
|
|
* `parse_deps()` now ignores trailing whitespaces around comparison operators
|
|
in DESCRIPTION fields (@LiNk-NY, #366)
|
|
|
|
# remotes 2.0.4
|
|
|
|
* `update.package_dependencies()` now uses the pkg_type for the cran remote
|
|
rather than a global type attribute, fixing errors when this global attribute
|
|
is lost (#291, #304).
|
|
|
|
* Credentials are no longer passed to dependencies, as this breaks dependencies
|
|
which use different credentials or hosts. If you have relied on this behavior
|
|
a more robust way to provide the credentials is using the appropriate
|
|
environment variables, e.g. `GITHUB_PAT`, `BITBUCKET_USER` etc.
|
|
(@antoine-sachet, #345).
|
|
|
|
* The hash of bitbucket hosts is now correctly retrieved (@antoine-sachet, #344)
|
|
|
|
* Fix parsing of Additional_Repositories which have a leading newline
|
|
(@tmelliott, #251).
|
|
|
|
# remotes 2.0.3
|
|
|
|
* The order of choices for `upgrade = "ask"` now puts the stable ones 'All',
|
|
'CRAN only', 'none' first, so they always have the same numbers (#287).
|
|
|
|
* `update_submodules()` now works with empty .gitmodules files (@jsilve24, #329).
|
|
|
|
* remotes now understands the "standard" remote type, as produced by packages
|
|
installed from CRAN using `pak` (#309)
|
|
|
|
* `install_dev()` now supports ref/pull format, e.g.
|
|
`install_dev('shiny@v1.2-rc')` (@mkearney, #279).
|
|
|
|
* Fix return type of `install_remote()` when there is a circular dependency (#225)
|
|
|
|
* `remote_package_name.github_remote()` now works properly on Windows (#248)
|
|
|
|
* `install_bioc()` repositories now updated for the Bioconductor 3.8 release.
|
|
(#239)
|
|
|
|
* `install_*` functions now set the `R_LIBS*` environment variables for
|
|
child processes correctly on Windows (@HenrikBengtsson, #253)
|
|
|
|
* `install_*` functions now support the `R_REMOTES_UPGRADE` environment
|
|
variable, to set the default for the `upgrade` argument. See README for
|
|
details (@kevinushey, #240).
|
|
|
|
* `install_*` functions perform basic HTTP authentication using HTTP
|
|
headers now. This fixes an issue with `install_bitbucket()` and private
|
|
repos (#255).
|
|
|
|
* `install_*` functions now respect the `download.file.method` option,
|
|
if `download_file()` is used for HTTP.
|
|
|
|
* `install_*` functions now use the _libcurl_ method, if the
|
|
`download.file.method` option is not set to a different one, and libcurl
|
|
is available. Before, the _wininet_ method was preferred on Windows.
|
|
If you rely on the proxy configuration of _wininet_, then you might
|
|
want to set the `download.file.method` option, or use another way to
|
|
set up proxies, see `?download.file`.
|
|
* Remotes without package names are now unconditionally installed (#246).
|
|
|
|
* `install_github()` now includes a more informative error message when the
|
|
status code is 404, asking the user to check that they have spelled the
|
|
repo owner and repo correctly (included in the error message), and that
|
|
they have the required permissions to access the repository.
|
|
|
|
* `install_*` functions (via the underlying private `install` function) now set
|
|
`RGL_USE_NULL="TRUE"` in order to avoid errors when running headless
|
|
and installing any package using `rgl` (@jefferis, ##333)
|
|
|
|
# remotes 2.0.2
|
|
|
|
* `install_deps()` now installs un-installed remotes packages even when
|
|
`upgrade = "never"` (@ankane, #227)
|
|
|
|
* `install_version()` now removes metadata added as a byproduct of using
|
|
`install_url()` internally() (#224)
|
|
|
|
* `install()` now avoids converting warnings to errors if
|
|
`R_REMOTES_NO_ERRORS_FROM_WARNINGS` is unset and
|
|
`_R_CHECK_FORCE_SUGGESTS_=false`. This avoids failures due to Suggested
|
|
packages potentially being missing.
|
|
|
|
* `install_bitbucket()` now works properly with packages in subdirectories
|
|
(#220)
|
|
|
|
* `install_deps()` now installs un-installed packages even when `upgrade =
|
|
"never"` (#218)
|
|
|
|
# remotes 2.0.1
|
|
|
|
* `install_github()` now bundles a GitHub PAT which is used on Travis to avoid
|
|
hitting the rate limit too frequently. It also contains a more informative
|
|
error message when the rate limit is hit on how to setup a GitHub personal
|
|
access token.
|
|
|
|
* The dialog when `upgrade = "ask"` now has a 'CRAN only' option, to update
|
|
only CRAN packages.
|
|
|
|
* No longer include project specific .Rprofile code in the temporary .Rprofile when
|
|
`R_REMOTES_NO_ERRORS_FROM_WARNINGS=false` (the default).
|
|
|
|
* `update.package_deps()` no longer prompts to install uninstalled
|
|
dependencies, they are always installed (#203).
|
|
|
|
* `available_packages()`, `available_packages_set()` and
|
|
`available_packges_reset()` added to allow caching of the
|
|
`available.packages()` database.
|
|
|
|
# remotes 2.0.0
|
|
|
|
## Breaking changes
|
|
|
|
* `install_github()`'s previously deprecated `username` argument has been
|
|
removed. (#142)
|
|
|
|
* `install_deps()`'s `threads` argument has been removed, use the `Ncpus`
|
|
argument instead (#153, #154)
|
|
|
|
* `install_git()`'s `branch` argument has been renamed to `ref` and `branch`
|
|
has been deprecated.
|
|
|
|
## New features
|
|
|
|
* remotes now builds packages by default before installing them. This step
|
|
uses the pkgbuild package, if available. If not, it calls `R CMD build`
|
|
directly.
|
|
|
|
* New `install_dev()` to install the development version of a CRAN package,
|
|
based on the URL and BugReports fields in the DESCRIPTION file (#144).
|
|
|
|
* `install_()*` functions now temporally put Rtools on the PATH when necessary,
|
|
as long as the pkgbuild package is installed.
|
|
|
|
* remotes can be forced to use only its internal code by setting the
|
|
environment variable `R_REMOTES_STANDALONE` = "true". This is useful when
|
|
installing optional dependencies of remotes on Windows, such as curl or git2r
|
|
(#147)
|
|
|
|
* When installing, remotes now errors on warnings, to catch cases
|
|
where packages are only partially installed. This often happens on
|
|
windows when the package dll is opened in another R process (#113).
|
|
|
|
* `install_()` functions now pass arguments, including authentication
|
|
information and upgrade down to dependencies (#53, #86, #87).
|
|
|
|
* `install_()` functions allow the selection of a subset of packages to
|
|
upgrade, in interactive mode, when `upgrade = "ask"`.
|
|
|
|
* `install_git()` now supports passing credentials, when it is used with
|
|
`git = "git2r"` (#106)
|
|
|
|
* `install_()` functions now return the name of the package(s) which were
|
|
installed (#55).
|
|
|
|
* git submodules are now installed if they exist and a git client is
|
|
available (#138, #133, #103, #82).
|
|
|
|
* New `install_gitlab()` and `install_bioc()` functions, to install
|
|
`gitlab` and `bioc` remote types.
|
|
|
|
* remotes now uses the same SHA updating logic for remotes as devtools,
|
|
including checking if the SHA of the remote has changed since the last
|
|
installation. (#135)
|
|
|
|
* `install_url()` can now install package binaries on windows
|
|
(r-lib/devtools#1765)
|
|
|
|
## Minor improvements and fixes
|
|
|
|
* `install_deps()` et al. now do not rewrite the `type` argument from `both`
|
|
to `binary` to allow falling back to `source`. This fixes various
|
|
installation failures.
|
|
|
|
* remotes now looks up GitHub package names locally, if possible, and
|
|
uses the GitHub REST API (if the curl package is available, and not in
|
|
standalone mode). This makes the remote lookup about 10x faster when the
|
|
remote package has not changed since the last install.
|
|
|
|
* Using a GITHUB_PAT no longer prints diagnostic messages by
|
|
default (r-lib/devtools#1752).
|
|
|
|
* remotes now always uses https URLs for R versions that support them
|
|
(@ankane, #139)
|
|
|
|
* Do not include the BioCextra repository in versions after it was deprecated
|
|
(R 3.5+, Bioc 3.6+).
|
|
|
|
* `install_()` functions now download tarballs (.tar.gz) files rather than zip
|
|
archives (.zip). This results in generally smaller files and avoids issues
|
|
with script permissions being lost and strange behavior of some external
|
|
unzip programs on Windows (#96).
|
|
|
|
* Dependency parsing is now more robust to whitespace around the dependency
|
|
specifications (#73).
|
|
|
|
* `standardise_dep()` exported, for use in devtools.
|
|
|
|
* `install_local()` now defaults to the current directory.
|
|
|
|
* `install_bitbucket()` now correctly supports authentication, and the
|
|
`subdir` argument.
|
|
|
|
* `install_()` functions give a helpful warning when the package has long
|
|
path names, on Windows. In this case building the package usually fails.
|
|
(#84, #178).
|
|
|
|
* `install_()` functions have now a more robust way of handling various
|
|
tar programs on Windows (#172).
|
|
|
|
* `install_()` functions now give a helpful warning on older R versions,
|
|
on Windows, if `R.home()` contains a space character. Installation
|
|
usually fails in this case.
|
|
|
|
* GitHub API errors now give better error messages, including data about
|
|
the API rate limits.
|
|
|
