Posting if anyone else runs into this issue. Feel free to close.

Attempting to install on linux Ubuntu 16.04.4 LTS

library(devtools)
devtools::install_github("benjjneb/decontam")
Downloading GitHub repo benjjneb/decontam@master
from URL https://api.github.com/repos/benjjneb/decontam/zipball/master
Installation failed: error in running command

The following works:

devtools::install_git("git://github.com/benjjneb/decontam",  branch = "master")

I am not hugely familiar with R so I'm not sure why the second command works and the first one did not.
