[R-pkg-devel] Help with a github/Rstudio mess

[Georgi Boshnakov]

If I understand correctly, the errors come from github actions run on github. I think that you should update them first, since github switched to new versions in the meantime.

I think this isn't the right place to ask for this sort of help. Maybe
stackoverflow instead?

What I'd do in this case is to rename the local dir holding the
repository, then clone a new copy from Github.  Assuming that works,
compare all the files to make sure that you have all recent changes,
commit any that were missed, then throw away the damaged one.
