I get this when trying to run this on https://github.com/njtierney/njtcv, if that helps

[MilesMcBain]

Thanks it seems that renv is doing something new and weird.

This is failing: renv::init(bare = TRUE)

[MilesMcBain]

Phew okay got it

A couple of things are going wrong, but from your perspective it's due to renv choking while parsing this function:

embolden_name <- function(string,
                          name = "Nicholas J. Tierney"){
  str_replace_all(string = string,
                  pattern = name,
                  replacement = glue::glue("\\\\textbf{<name>}",
                                           .open = "<",
                                           .close = ">"))
}

I think all the escapes are freaking it out somehow.

[MilesMcBain]

Looks like it's been fixed in renv already, can you please update and confirm it's working? 🙏

[njtierney]

Yup that fixed it! 🚀

Perhaps capsule needs to depend on the latest/dev version of renv now?
