Add a version of the data directories — version

This function will create a new version of the data directories, by copying the current data directories to a new directory in versions, and creating links to the new directories. The new version will be called version_name.

Usage

version_add(
  path = ".",
  intermediate_new_version = NULL,
  raw_new_version = NULL,
  intermediate_source = NULL,
  raw_source = NULL,
  intermediate_description = NULL,
  raw_description = NULL,
  git_branch = NULL,
  quiet = FALSE
)

Arguments

path: The path to the resrepo directory
intermediate_new_version: The name of the new version for the intermediate data
raw_new_version: The name of the new version for the raw data. If NULL, the raw data will be kept in the currently used version
intermediate_source: The name of the intermediate version to copy from. If NULL, it will be the current version
raw_source: The name of the raw version to copy from. If NULL, it will be the current version. Ignored if raw_new_version is NULL.
intermediate_description: A description of the new intermediate version
raw_description: A description of the new raw version. Ignored if raw_new_version is NULL.
git_branch: The name of the git branch to create. If NULL, it will be the same as new_version

Details

intermediate_new_version and raw_new_version will be sanitised to remove spaces and other characters that are not allowed in directory names. If the sanitised version is different from the original version, a warning will be issued.
