Using install_github() from behind a proxy #656

@jeroenooms oops, yes |
For whatever reason this no longer seems to be an issue. On a new environment, after installing devtools, I can open up a new R session, use: httr::set_config(httr::use_proxy(...)) to set the proxy, then: devtools::install_github("hadley/dplyr") installs dplyr and all its dependencies. Nice! :) |

I followed this advice to use
install_github()
from behind a proxy.However, there is the following problem: if we call
install_github()
withdependencies = FALSE
then the installation will fail if the packages on which it is dependent have not yet been installed; but if we instead setdependencies = TRUE
the call will hang as it falls back toinstall.packages()
which does not seem to be aware that the proxy has been set viahttr::set_config(httr::use_proxy(...))
