[R-pkg-devel] Can Submission Failure

[Ossenbruggen, Paul]

I am new to CRAN submissions and need assistance.

I received this set of error messages previously. I removed all these hidden files before resubmitting my package. They are back.
Question #1 How do I prevent this this?

PJO:Desktop PJO$ tar -zcvf Basic.tar.gz Basic
Found the following hidden files and directories:

  .DS_Store
  .RData
  .Rhistory
  ._NAMESPACE
  .gitignore
  .travis.yml
  R/.DS_Store
  R/._brkdelay.R
  R/._brkdelay3.R
  R/._brktrials3.R
  R/._brktrials3setup.R
  R/._merge.R
  R/._merge3.R
  R/._mergedemo.R
  R/._plotdesire3.R
  R/._plotmerge3.R
  R/._run.R
  R/._trajectoryab3.R
  R/._tuxvfix3.R
  R/._vehid.R
  R/._xabmerge.R
  R/._xabmerge3.R
  data/.DS_Store
  data/.Rapp.history
  man/.Rapp.history
  vignettes/._cartools.Rmd
  vignettes/.gitignore
  .Rproj.user
  .git


Finding an answer to this question will be a big help.


I performed R CMD check and devtools::build_win() before I submitted the above. For completeness, here are my submit statements.

 devtools::build_win()
Building windows version of
 cartools for R-devel with
 win-builder.r-project.org<http://win-builder.r-project.org/>.

#1. Warning:
 ‘inst/doc’ files
   ‘cartools.Rmd’,
 ‘cartools.html’, ‘cartools.R’
 ignored as
 vignettes have been rebuilt.
 Run R CMD build with
 --no-build-vignettes to prevent rebuilding.
*
 checking for LF line-endings in source and make files
 and shell scripts
* checking for empty or unneeded
 directories
* looking to see if a
 ‘data/datalist’ file should be added
#2.
*
 building ‘cartools_0.1.0.tar.gz’
I don't understand what this file is for. I am uploading:  Basic.tar.gz.

#3
I have instructed the following
 folder to be ignored:  .Rproj.user
It is not ignored
 in GitHub. It contains items that I did not
 create.
This does not seem correct,

#4. I
 receievd a win-builder email stating:
Possibly
 mis-spelled words in DESCRIPTION: cartools
 (3:8)
Unknown, possibly mis-spelled, fields in
 DESCRIPTION: 'Remotes'
The above items are
 false/postives.

I don't understand the following
 statement.
The Title field is just the package name:
 provide a real title.

#5. I am a subscriber but my
 questions to r-packages-devel bounce.
