In imanuelcostigan/managelocalrepo: Manage a CRAN-Style Local Repository

Description

This will take a package from a given location and populate it to the relevant trees in the local repo. It will create terminal directories if needed.

Usage

release_package(package_location, repo_base, type = "win", version = "all",
  r_versions = c("2.15", "3.0", "3.1", "3.2"), ...)

Arguments

package_location	the full path to the package's file. This should be the package's file name represented by a character vector of length one.
repo_base	the base directory of the local repository represented by a character vector of length one.
type	the type of package file being released. Should be win (default), mac or src for Windows binary, Mac binary and source package distributions respectively.
version	determines which terminal directory to release the package file to, given a value for type that is either wim or mac. Can also use "all" to release the package to all terminal directories for either wim or mac. If type is src, then version is ignored, as this is not needed.

...	optional arguments to pass to file.path
