You're doing one strange thing:  the only code in the package is

  devtools::load_all()

in the single .R file.  That's a weird thing to do.

Hello, All:


GitHub Action has been running on 5 platforms for over a half hour on a
tiny package:


https://github.com/sbgraves237/SS4Maddison


I'm trying to follow the current recommendation in Wickham and Bryan, R
Packages.[1] I just added ~R/MaddisonProjectData.R, documenting data
objects I have yet to add to the package, attempting to follow the
instructions in R Packages, section 7.1.2 Documenting datasets.[2]


Then "devtools::load_all()" on my local computer put R into an apparent
infinite loop.[3] After breaking out of that, I managed to replicate the
behavior on 5 platforms on GitHub Action.


What do you suggest?
Thanks,
Spencer Graves
