Very nice idea but how does this package differ from git2r?

brian-bot commented 8 years ago

Great question! git2r is much more focussed on providing an interactive experience with a user's local git installation through R -- where githubr interacts only with GitHub's APIs (you don't even need git installed locally).

Alright that makes sense! Thanks. Will you work on this project in the sprint of 2 and 3 june? Op 31 mei 2016 22:58 schreef "Brian M. Bot" notifications@github.com:
