Initial CRAN release.

• Main function here()
  • Uses a fixed root that contains a .here file or can be either an RStudio project, an R package, a remake project, a Projectile project, or a VCS repository.
  • The root is established at package loading time, and shown with a message.
  • The current working directory is used as a fallback.
• The set_here() function creates a .here file so that a directory is recognized as root by here().
• The dr_here() function explains the reasoning of here() for the current session.
