renv::update with remotes dependency and subdir #2229
Description
A package in the renv.lock (example below) that is a remote from git, with a subdir will fail on renv::update with
Fehler: DESCRIPTION file "/tmp/Rtmpn8oI9c/renv-git-310522bcdf703/DESCRIPTION" does not exist
Traceback (most recent calls last):
8: renv::update()
7: install(packages = updates, library = library, rebuild = rebuild,
prompt = prompt, lock = lock, project = project)
6: map(paths, renv_sysreqs_read)
5: lapply(x, f, ...)
4: FUN(X[[i]], ...)
3: renv_description_read(package)
2: stopf("DESCRIPTION file %s does not exist", renv_path_pretty(path))
1: stop(sprintf(fmt, ...), call. = call.)
If I look into the /tmp/Rtmpn8oI9c/renv-git-310522bcdf703/ i can see that it is not the subdir_R.
Using remotes::update_packages() works.
