Description:
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.
