Drat makes one simple assumption (in the one / default argument case): that the repo is called 'drat' within gh repo of the given user. Ie using addRepo("arilamstein") requires that ttps://github.com/arilamstin/drat/ exists and has a gh-pages branch. Drat would not know about choroplethrZip Which is why the docs say 'easiest to just fork the drat repo'. That give you arilmastein/drat and gh-pages in one swoop. In the expanded form you can give any (http or file) URL, that is was use at work for files shared via the local network. Please try this, and if you need more follow-up we may want to move off-list now. You have a pretty good use case so I want to help you with this.
