Changes in version 0.1.2                        

New checks and check improvements

  - Removed numerous skip_on_os() conditions in tests (#378)
  - Added check to make sure statistical standards document compliance
    for at least one specific category, not just general.
  - Added check for packages using statistical standards only in a
    single directory or file (check-srr), improving detection of
    incomplete standards adoption.
  - Elevated sp to the "truly obsolete" category in the
    obsolete-package-deps check.
  - Added rm_global_assign_in_memoise to handle <<- within memoise
    calls, preventing false positives in the global-assignment check.
  - Fixed output of obsolete_pkg_deps function and improved ordering of
    checks via order_checks.

Infrastructure and CI

  - Added dependabot.yml to keep GitHub Actions dependencies up to date;
    bumped actions/checkout, actions/github-script,
    docker/build-push-action, docker/setup-buildx-action, and
    docker/login-action to current versions.
  - Updated check-standard workflow; improved test-coverage workflow.
  - Switched off bspm before final sf reinstall in Dockerfile to fix
    library-linkage issues; re-installed sf at end of Docker script.
  - Added all packages from r-universe-org/base-image to Dockerfile.
  - Updated test snapshots for new srr standards (v0.2) and for changes
    in pkgstats output.

Bug fixes

  - Fixed minor bug in parse_pkg_deps and order_checks.
  - Fixed catch lintr errors so that lintr failures no longer crash the
    full check run.
  - Improved render_markdown/render_md2html and added examples and
    return values to all exported functions.

Documentation

  - Updated README to describe the package-check workflow more clearly.
  - Updated monthly GHA workflow message.
  - Renamed render_markdown to render_md2html for clarity.
  - Added pkgcheck GitHub Action integration (add pkgcheck action).

                        Changes in version 0.1.1                        

New checks

  - Added check-fns-have-return-vals: flags exported functions whose
    roxygen documentation lacks a @return tag.
  - Added check-default-branch: warns when the default git branch is not
    main.
  - Implemented a three-way symbol set (heavy_check_mark, eyes,
    heavy_multiplication_x) to distinguish clear passes, marginal
    results, and clear failures across all check output.

Check improvements

  - Rewrote the srr failure message to list each missing standard
    individually, making it actionable for package authors.
  - Improved fns_have_return_vals to use tools::parse_Rd instead of
    roxygen2 for parsing return values, making it more robust.
  - Removed fns_have_return_vals from the print method; results now
    appear only in the summary method.
  - Fixed print output when an srr check fails entirely.

Documentation and vignettes

  - Restructured README with a clearer check-by-check guide.
  - Added list-checks vignette documenting every check.
  - Updated all pkgchk_ function documentation pages; added roxygen2
    family tags throughout.

Infrastructure

  - Switched Docker base image from bspm to r2u for faster, more
    reliable package installation.
  - Switched Dockerfile base OS from ubuntugis to ubuntugis-unstable to
    fix spatial library compatibility.

  - Updated allcontributors list.

                        Changes in version 0.1.0                        

New checks

  - Added check-unique-fn-names: verifies that no exported function name
    duplicates a name already used by a CRAN package (fn_names_on_cran).
  - Added check-renv / renv_activated: detects packages where renv is
    activated in the project, which can interfere with dependency
    resolution.

Check improvements

  - Renamed has_renv check to renv_activated with an improved
    user-facing message.
  - Changed misc_check_counts to a dedicated summary function replacing
    has_misc_checks.
  - Improved format-checks.R to handle checks with empty print methods.
  - Fixed check_left_assigns to correctly handle edge cases.
  - Fixed pkgchk_fns_have_exs to exclude package and data docTypes from
    the examples check.
  - Added rm_global_assigns_in_ref_class to avoid false positives from
    <<- inside R5/Reference Class definitions.

API and caching

  - Moved the cache directory from cache/ to cache/R/ for cleaner
    organisation.

                        Changes in version 0.0.2                        

Package rename and restructure

  - Renamed the package from an earlier prototype to pkgcheck and
    updated the object class, all exported function names, and
    documentation to match (closes #21).

    tags.
  - check-on-cran: reports whether the package is already on CRAN.
  - check-uses-roxygen2: checks that roxygen2 is used for documentation.
  - check-covr: reports test coverage via covr.

Output and print methods

  - Added print and summary S3 methods for the pkgcheck class; added
    dedicated output_pkgchk_* functions for each check type, providing
    consistent screen and markdown rendering.
  - Added checks_to_markdown function that converts the full pkgcheck
    result to a GitHub-flavoured Markdown string, including a visjs
    network diagram and an srr standards section.
  - Added render_markdown function to render the Markdown string to HTML
    via rmarkdown.
  - Implemented symbol_tck / symbol_crs helpers (tick and cross Unicode
    symbols) used uniformly across all output functions; added fmt
    parameter for screen vs. markdown formatting.
  - Added order_checks function to control the display sequence of check
    items in summary output.
  - Added list_pkgchecks function (with quiet parameter) to enumerate
    all currently active checks.

    the cache directory.
  - Extended convert_gp_components to produce Markdown-formatted
    sub-sections.

Statistical software standards (srr)

    Markdown report to the static cache directory, and added srr
    categories to the print and summary output.
  - Added add_srr_categories_from_report function.
  - Added separate collate_srr_checks / summarise_srr_checks functions.

Caching and background execution

  - Added pkgcheck_bg for running checks in a background callr process
    (via callr::r_bg), with checks_running_in_bg to detect concurrent
    runs.
  - Added stdout_stderr_cache / logfile_names helpers for routing
    background-process output to cache files.
  - Added cache-directory management via .onLoad: auto-creates pkgcheck
    and static sub-directories under the rappdirs application directory.

CI and GitHub Actions

  - Added ci_badges check: scrapes CI badges from the package README to
    determine CI provider status (GitHub Actions, Travis, etc.).
  - Added ci_results_gh function: fetches GitHub Actions workflow run
    results directly from the GitHub API via gert and gh.
  - Replaced all git remote shell commands with gert equivalents.
