   > Is there a setup agnostic way to run bash scripts on windows from R? The 
only possibility I see is using WSL or checking for git-bash (which is not on 
path by default afaik).
   
   On Windows I think we can take for granted that if a user is building a 
package they have already installed RTools (or should do so).
   
   It looks like pkgbuild has a function `with_build_tools()` 
([docs](https://r-lib.github.io/pkgbuild/reference/has_build_tools.html)) that 
can temporarily add the appropriate RTools to the PATH before running a 
supplied script. Perhaps that is the appropriate thing to use here?
