  addl_meta = NULL,
  supplement_version = FALSE,
  overwrite = TRUE,
  ...
)

Arguments

.pkgdir	path to package
types	types of package to build
repository	repository name being built for
origin	package source
addl_meta	additional metadata
supplement_version	add additional version info (unix timestamp) to version. TRUE inspects the pkg folder as a git repo, also may provide a character or numeric value to append

...	parameters to pass to pkgbuild

Details

supplementing version can be done whenever a build occurs that does not correspond to a formal release/tag. This will automatically add information about the git hash (if available), as well as incrememnt the version number with a unix timestamp that corresponds to the last git hash (if present) or the current system time, if git is not present and no version timestamp is provided.
