Installing dependencies fails on my local Windows environment with dev version of devtools package.

is from around here.
res <- system(paste("cp -R .", shQuote(instdir),
"|| (", TAR, "cd - .| (cd", shQuote(instdir), "&&", TAR, "-xf -))"
))But it says this do_install_binary() is for Unix only. This means something is wrong that this part of code is executed on Windows platform.
The correct way of installing binary packages on Windows platform seems to be using ZIP archive without decompressing. I suspect the problem is that install_remote() does not follow the way; it seems to ALWAYS decompress() package archives, around here
Could you consider adding condition branch for Windows?
