Getting a "skipping install..." message when trying to install rcfss #197

Closed MedhaRaju closed 2 years ago

MedhaRaju commented 2 years ago

I'm trying to install rcfss using the following code:

if (packageVersion("devtools") < 1.6) { install.packages("devtools") }

devtools::install_github("uc-cfss/rcfss")

When I run the above code, I get the following message:

Skipping install of 'rcfss' from a github remote, the SHA1 (5b60f614) has not changed since last install. Use force = TRUE to force installation install.packages()

I tried typing force = TRUE, but that just generates the following message again: install.packages()

How can I proceed to access the dataset in hw02?

I checked on Stackoverflow -- looks like this is not an "issue" per se, this seems to be the default behavior. I was able to access the dataset.

Yes you only need to install the package if it is not already available.
