The gitr Package

GitHub version CRAN status R-CMD-check Codecov test coverage Lifecycle: stable License: MIT

Overview

A light-weight, dependency-free, API to access system-level git commands from within R. It contains wrappers and defaults for common data science workflows as well as Z-shell and it’s plugins (see below). Generalized API syntax is also available. A system installation of git is required.

If you run into any issues/problems with gitr full documentation of the most recent release can be found at the pkgdown website. If the issue persists I encourage you to consult the issues page and, if appropriate, submit an issue and/or feature request.

Disclaimer

Use at own risk :smiley_cat:, however, PRs are encouraged for ideas that I’ve missed. The functionality contained in gitr are heavily influenced by my personal data science workflows and may not suit all users. However, if you have an idea that would make the package better, more widely usable, and/or efficient, please submit an issue or pull request.

Installation

The easiest way to install gitr is to install directly from CRAN:

install.packages("gitr")

Alternatively install the development version from GitHub:

remotes::install_github("stufield/gitr")

To install a specific tagged release, use:

remotes::install_github("stufield/gitr@v0.0.1")

Load

library(gitr)
