manifestFromCheckoutDir

This function is useful when a developer has a 'checkout' directory
where the sources for multiple packages live. Particularly, it
allows one to work on multiple interlocking packages at the same
time and have a manifest which will install them all together
automatically when time for testing.

Provides an abstraction for managing, installing,
and switching between sets of installed R packages. This allows users to
maintain multiple package libraries simultaneously, e.g. to maintain
strict, package-version-specific reproducibility of many analyses, or
work within a development/production release paradigm. Introduces a
generalized package installation process which supports multiple repository
and non-repository sources and tracks package provenance.
