In renv: Project Environments

#' Consent to usage of renv
#'
#' Provide consent to renv, allowing it to write and update certain files
#' on your filesystem.
#'
#' As part of its normal operation, renv will write and update some files
#' in your project directory, as well as an application-specific cache
#' directory. These paths are documented within [paths].
#'
#' In accordance with the
#' [CRAN Repository Policy](https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/policies.html),
#' renv must first obtain consent from you, the user, before these actions
#' can be taken. Please call `renv::consent()` first to provide this consent.
#'
#' You can also set the \R option:
#'
#' ```
#' options(renv.consent = TRUE)
#' ```
#'
#' to implicitly provide consent for e.g. non-interactive \R sessions.
#'
#' @param provided The default provided response. If you need to provide
#'   consent from a non-interactive \R session, you can invoke
#'   `renv::consent(provided = TRUE)` explicitly.
#'
#' @return `TRUE` if consent is provided, or an \R error otherwise.
#'
#' @export
