Blacklist .git folder in R CMD check

Question

I\'m pretty sure that a lot of you guys out there are using git as CVS. How do you bypass the following warning on R CMD check:

* c         


        

Answer 1

The only way I could find to get rid of these stupid messages from my builds is to just filter it out for now: R CMD check . |grep -v .git

Answer 2

Yes, use .Rbuildignore and then build the .tar.gz and then check the .tar.gz and not the source directory.
