install_github WRONG

[MarissaHeloise]

Hello, I am using R studio, and my R version is 3.5.1.
I can't download packages correctly from GitHub.
Could you please help me? I ran into the same question when I was trying to use REmap as well.

1. you can download the package in your local computer:
   https://github.com/Lchiffon/REmap
2. then,
   library(devtools)
   devtools::install_local("D:\R_package\REmap-master.zip") #change the path
   library(REmap)
