pkgbuild v1.0.8

• Fixes for capability RStudio 1.2. and Rtools 40, R 4.0.0

pkgbuild v1.0.7

• Additional fixes for Rtools 40

pkgbuild 1.0.6

• Support for RTools 40 and custom msys2 toolchains that are explicitly set
  using the CC Makevars (#40).

pkgbuild 1.0.5

• check_build_tools() gains a quiet argument, to control when the message
  is displayed. The message is no longer displayed when check_build_tools()
  is called internally by pkgbuild functions. (#83)

pkgbuild 1.0.4

• build() gains a clean_doc argument, to control if the inst/doc
  directory is cleaned before building. (#79, #75)

• build() and pkgbuild_process now have standard output and error are
  correctly interleaved, by redirecting the standard error of build process
  to the standard output (@gaborcsardi, #78).

• check_build_tools() now has a more helpful error message which points you
  towards ways to debug the issue (#68).

• pkgbuild_process now do not set custom compiler flags, and it uses
  the user's Makevars file (@gaborcsardi, #76).

• rtools_path() now returns NA on non-windows systems and also works when
  has_rtools() has not been run previously (#74).

pkgbuild v1.0.3

• Tests which wrote to the package library are now skipped on CRAN.

• build() can now build a tar.gz file directly (#55)

pkgbuild v1.0.2

• build() and compile_dll() gain a register_routines argument, to
  automatically register C routines with
  tools::package_native_routines_registration_skeleton() (#50)

• build() will now warn if trying to build packages on R versions <= 3.4.2 on
  Windows with a space in the R installation directory (#49)

• build() will now message if a build contains long paths, which are unsupported on windows
  (#48)

• compile_dll() no longer doubles output, a regression caused by the styling callback.
  (r-lib/devtools#1877)

• build() output is now styled like that in the rcmdcheck package
  (r-lib/devtools#1874).

• build() no longer sets compile flags (#46)

pkgbuild v1.0.1

pkgbuild 1.0.1

• compile_dll() now does not supply compiler flags if there is an existing
  user defined Makevars file.

• local_build_tools() function added to provide a deferred equivalent to
  with_build_tools(). So you can add rtools to the PATH until the end of a
  function body.
