Basic usage:

  installGithub.r RcppCore/RcppEigen

Install multiple R packages from GitHub:

  installGithub.r RcppCore/Rcpp RcppCore/RcppEigen

Install multiple R packages from GitHub listing the packages on separate lines with some comments:

  installGithub.r \\
    RcppCore/Rcpp \\
    RcppCore/RcppEigen

Installing a specific branch, tag or commit:

  installGithub.r RcppCore/Rcpp@1.0.0

Installing from a repo subdirectory:

  installGithub.r chanzuckerberg/cellxgene-census/api/r/cellxgene.census

Setting multiple R package repositories to install dependencies of the R package:

  installGithub.r -r https://cloud.r-project.org -r https://eddelbuettel.github.io/drat RcppCore/RcppEigen
