Description
I've been experiencing very slow downloads of GH packages, which trigger failure for Require with the error:
Error in downloadGitHub(pkgNeedInternet, libPaths, tmpdir = tmpdir, verbose, : Download failed; perhaps flaky internet or file to large?
However, devtools::install_github seems to be fine with this, even if the download takes a while to start.
Would it be possible to make Require more tolerant of slow internet connecitons, or websites that are being slow to respond (which I think is the problem here, since all pkg downloads from other repos are fine)
