A small update to RcppRedis arrived on CRAN a few days ago. One of the unit tests failed as we (still) initialized the rredis package (loaded only for a comparison) in a form long-internalized by Bryan Lewis, its author. No actual changes to functionality were; the only other changes is cosmetic and in response a R CMD check requirement where the curl binary seemingly fails to follow redirects so we removed the (official !) redis.io URL.
Changes in version 0.1.4 (2015-07-04)
Minor update to unit test setup for rredis.
No longer list URLs to Redis as automated CRAN tests for URL validity choke on redirects.
Courtesy of CRANberries, there is also a diffstat report for the most recent release. More information is on the RcppRedis page.
