Hi, Could you provide more information about the error you face with `brew install libgit2` ?? Without knowing what error message you see, it's hard to speculate about why devtools or gert didn’t work.

Our package is giving build errors and we are investigating why. I'm currently working on setting up the environment so I can replicate the error. I have a MacOS High Sierra. Here is what I did: * downloaded R 4.1 from https://mac.r-project.org/ and * Got the latest BioC 3.13 using BiocManager::install(version = "devel") * When I tried *install.packages("devtools")*, it said *"Package which is only available in source form, and may need compilation of **C/C++/Fortran: ‘gert’* So Then I did *install.packages("devtools")* It gave me an error saying *"Configuration failed to find libgit2 library." Try installing: brew: libgit2 (MacOS)* I have tried installing libgit2 using both brew and within R. Neither worked. So at this point, I'm unable to install devtools . And without devtools, Check And Build are not working Has anyone else encountered this issue, please advise on how to fix this.
