@jenmunoz I completely agree that its not ideal! I think that a good solution is to somehow separate the file with the metadata from the one that your script produces. Here are some options:
mydata_tidy.csv
and then create a metadata file called mydata_with_metadata.csvy
or something..csvy
(then they can have the same name, but different file extension)metadata.yml
file.But whatever happens, there is no risk of your reviewers accidentally modifying your work. I've made sure that they do not have permission to do so!
I am wondering if when the reviewers run the Rscript for the metadata .csvy, it will rewrite the file and delete all the info included in the metadata manually. That is not ideal!
