Why not use the official installer and adjust the installation path? https://cran.r-project.org/bin/macosx/
Also allows multiple versions being installed, all from the CLI (but I guess guess it's a normal desktop machine and you can just use the gui installer). 256GB is a normal size for a disk, don't see the problem. 90% of all macs probably don't have more. Homebrew R differs slightly from the official R installer and might cause problems in some cases. Matthias Krawutschke <krawutsc...@uni-potsdam.de> schrieb am Di., 28.
