    R version (#161).

  • rig now works in a shell that is a subprocess or R, e.g. in the
    RStudio terminal (#127).

  • rig now works behind a proxy, on macOS and Linux, if the https_proxy
    environment variable is set (#166).

  • rig resolve now has a --platform and a --arch arguments, to look up
    available R versions for any supported platform, instead of the current
    one.

  • rig ls --plain lists only the R version names, this is useful in
    shell scripts (#128).

  • rig rstudio now starts RStudio with the correct working directory
    and project (#139, #100).

  • macOS: rig add now only changes the permission for the R version
    that it is installing (#109).

  • Windows: rig rstudio now starts the correct R version, even with newer
    RStudio versions (#134).

  • Windows: rig now works in PowerShell 7.

  • Windows: the rig installer now does not create shortcut in the start
    menu (#160).

  • Linux and macOS: rig now keeps the locales when switching to the root
    user, so e.g. the language does not change (#138).

  • Linux: rig now works properly in Oh My Zsh (#125).

  • Linux: rig now works around a missing /usr/bin/sed that happened
    on some distros (#119).

  • Linux: rig now does not fail if the default R version was deleted (#124).

  • Linux: new subcommand rig system detect-platform to print the detected
    Linux distribution and configuration.

  • Linux: You can now set the RIG_PLATFORM environment variable to
    override the auto-detected Linux distriution. E.g.
    RIG_PLATFORM=ubuntu-22.04 will force Ubuntu 22.04.

  • Linux: rig now comes with a CA certificate bundle, so it works without
    system certificates. If you prefer not to use it, set the SSL_CERT_FILE
    environment variable to point to your preferred CA bundle (#176).
