In seandavi/CollaborativeBookdown: Utilities and documentation for building collaborative bookdown materials

Description

For building bookdown books, the markdown header information usually present in an Rmd file or a vignette causes problems. This function makes a copy of the Rmd, but removes any yaml header information (specified by '^—' regex).

Usage

copyRmd(srcfile, destfile = basename(srcfile), remove.yaml = TRUE)

Arguments

srcfile	character(1) filename
destfile	character(1) filename
remove.yaml	logical(1) when copying, remove yaml header metadata?

Details

If srcfile and destfile are the same, the src file is overwritten.
