📁 About RepoBuild

RepoBuild is a simple R package that helps you quickly set up a standardized project folder structure.

🔧 What It Does

The function RepoBuild("path/to/RepoFolder") will create the following structure in the specified folder:

RepoFolder/
├── RepoFolder.Rproj       # RStudio project file
├── R/                     # R scripts
├── data/                  # Raw or cleaned data
├── input/                 # Input files (e.g., CSVs, Excel)
├── output/                # Output folder
│   ├── figures/           # Figures and plots
│   └── tables/            # Exported tables
└── instructions/          # Notes or instructions

.gitignore Initialization

The function also creates a .gitignore file with the following default content:

.Rproj.user
.Rhistory
*log*

You can modify this file as needed for your project.

Note: Git does not track empty folders by default, so folders will only be included once they contain files.
