1. You make some analysis with a R script.
You want to share it with some collaborator so she can explore and review the code, propose modifications, fixes, improvements, etc. You send the script by e-mail, along with the data
Problem: The script is not portable. She needs to substitute some platform-specific packages and functions and modify all paths to the data and to various files. When she sends back her edits, you need to manually revert those changes back again so that it works at your place.
