Hello:


       Hadley Wickham's otherwise wonderful "R packages" book recommends 
using "devtools::build_win()" in the "Test environments" section of his 
chapter on "Releasing a package".  However, devtools 2.2.1, which seems 
to be the current version, contains no such "build_win" function.


       This section of "R packages" also says, says that 
"devtools::revdep_check()" "Runs R CMD check on each [reverse 
dependency] and Summarises the results in a single file."  However, the 
current version of "devtools::revdep_check()" seems only to identify the 
reverse dependencies without testing them.


       That do you suggest?
       Thanks,
       Spencer Graves
