Whenever Appveyor runs it shows the following error:

Maybe it's because part of the tools are not cleaned up or added to .Rbuildignore, like is being checked here: https://github.com/krlmlr/r-appveyor/blob/e86a7655bf792dd149651dc9208269db32de814e/r-travis/scripts/travis-tool.sh#L57

Thanks, found it in your build: https://ci.appveyor.com/project/StevenMMortimer/salesforcer/build/job/fmf91l0chui80lgf#L255. In this particular case, I think the problem can be resolved by appending an end-of-line to your .Rbuildignore .

I seriously wonder if the package's repository is the best place for this file, particularly because we need to jump through hoops to update .Rbuildignore . Perhaps we should copy the file to C:\Windows or any other path location?

See the contents of the generated .Rbuildignore :

Now always adding a newline to .Rbuildignore, should work for your repo out of the box now.
