renv (version 1.0.7)

rehash: Re-hash packages in the renv cache

Description

Re-hash packages in the renv cache, ensuring that any previously-cached packages are copied to a new cache location appropriate for this version of renv. This can be useful if the cache scheme has changed in a new version of renv, but you'd like to preserve your previously-cached packages.

Usage

rehash(prompt = interactive(), ...)

Arguments

prompt

Boolean; prompt the user before taking any action? For backwards compatibility, confirm is accepted as an alias for prompt.

...

Unused arguments, reserved for future expansion. If any arguments are matched to ..., renv will signal an error.

Details

Any packages which are re-hashed will retain links to the location of the newly-hashed package, ensuring that prior installations of renv can still function as expected.
