GitStats 2.1.1

This is a patch release which introduces some improvements in get_R_package_usage() on speed and possibility to pull at once data on multiple R packages, new get_storage() function and some fixes for checking token scopes and setting hosts.

Features:

• Optimized get_R_package_usage() function:
  • it is now possible to pass a vector of packages names (new packages parameter replacing old package_name) (#494),
  • on the other hand, output of the function has been limited to contain only most necessary data (removing all repository stats), making thus process of obtaining package usage faster (#474).
  • new split_output parameter has been added - when set to TRUE a list with tibbles (every element of the list for every package) instead of one tibble is returned.
• Added possibility to get repositories for individual users with get_repos() (#492). Earlier this was only possible for GitHub organizations and GitLab groups.
• Added new get_storage() function to retrieve data from GitStats object - whole or particular datasets (e.g. commits, repositories or R_package_usage) (#509).

Fixes:

• Fixed getting large search responses for GitHub (#491).
• Fixed checking token scopes (#501). If token scopes are insufficient error is returned and GitHost is not passed to GitStats. This also applies to situation when GitStats looks for default tokens (not defined by user). Earlier, if tests for token failed, an empty token was passed and GitStats was created, which was misleading for the user.
• It is now possible to pass public GitHub host name (github.com or https://github.com) to set_github_host() (#475).
• It is also possible to pass hosts in more flexible way than before (e.g. {host_url}, http://{host_url} or https://{host_url}) to host parameter in `set_*_host() function (#399).
