Download problems for pins

[jameshunterbr]

I'm trying to download pins from this repository, but I get the following error.

remotes::install_github("rstudio/pins") Error: Failed to install 'unknown package' from GitHub: HTTP error 401. Bad credentials

I have installed other packages via GitHub today successfully. Sorry if I have put this in the wrong place.

I don't believe it is a problem with the pins GH repo. I was just able to install this again OK:

devtools::install_github("rstudio/pins", force = TRUE)
#> Downloading GitHub repo rstudio/pins@HEAD
#> 
#> * checking for file ‘/private/var/folders/hv/hzsmmyk9393_m7q3nscx1slc0000gn/T/RtmpXkyGJW/remotes645c3ad18d36/rstudio-pins-2a1a0d8/DESCRIPTION’ ... OK
#> * preparing ‘pins’:
#> * checking DESCRIPTION meta-information ... OK
#> * checking for LF line-endings in source and make files and shell scripts
#> * checking for empty or unneeded directories
#> Removed empty directory ‘pins/pkgdown’
#> * building ‘pins_1.0.1.9000.tar.gz’

It sounds like you probably have a problem with credentials for GitHub. You can read more about connecting to GitHub here: https://happygitwithr.com/connect-intro.html

Thanks for the reminder. Indeed my PAT expired last week and I forgot to update it. All well now. See, Julia, you really are more competent that the brainless shriekers on Twitter are giving you credit for. I join with all the fans there responding to your tweet of yesterday.
