install_github doesn't include documentation #43

Closed wwiecek closed 4 years ago

Sorry, maybe I'm missing an obvious alternative and/or this was intended, but just in case: for non-dev users who will use install_github() route recommended on your website, the package repo does not include man/ files. So only users with some working knowledge of git/package development can get the documentation (by cloning -> devtools::document() and then building).

Thanks a lot for this - the *.Rd files are currently in .gitignore as they are generated by roxygen. You're right that as a consequence devtools::install_github() will not install help pages. We'll either check in the doc files or add further installation instructions with the next release.
