Details

These differences are created when you use the normal R package management commands like install.packages, update.packages, and remove.packages. To bring these differences into packrat, you can use snapshot.

Differences can also arise if one of your collaborators adds or removes packages from the packrat dependencies. In this case, you simply need to tell packrat to update your private package library using restore.
