Hello all,

I had a question about package development using the devel version of 
bioconductor. We are encouraged to add dependence to the version of R that is 
used by the devel branch of Bioconductor, e.g. R version 4.1. This means 
developing using a version of R that is not released yet. Users downloading our 
package from Github get the following error message.
Do we revert to the current R version after the package is out of the 
development stage? Or are we supposed to leave the dependence on the devel 
version of R?

Your github repo can have branches that address the different R versions and 
you can use the ref= parameter of install_github to get the appropriate
one.

There are other approaches and others will surely provide additional guidance.


> install_github("https://github.com/hendriau/Summix.git";)

Installing package into �C:/Users/Gregory/Documents/R/win-library/4.0�

Thank you,
