Probably have better luck in the R-sig-mac mailing list. Since there have been discussions about how the newer OSX versions have been a bit troublesome it is even more important than normal that you start by reading the archives. I, like most but not all on this list, don't have a mac... cannot help you.
As for copying the source code into a directory... that never works. you have to install, and for a source package that means you have to have already installed a compiler tool chain suitable for your OS and where you obtained your version of R from (e.g. from CRAN or homebrew or Anaconda or other. Sounds challenging, but you shouldn't have to know how to read the source code in order to follow directions to install packages. See the R documentation.
