Using the instructions described in github and installing Java accordingly with Chocolatey -- plus installing rJava and setting the path in R with Sys.setenv(JAVA_HOME = "C:/Program Files/Java/jdk1.8.0_131")-- I've done the following in R:
library(ghit)
library(git2r)
ghit::install_github(c("leeper/tabulizerjars", "leeper/tabulizer"), INSTALL_opts = "--no-multiarch", dependencies = c("Depends", "Imports"))
Which is the solution provided in this answer. I get the following error:
Error in git2r::init(d) :
Error in 'git2r_repository_init': Unable to init repository
Setting the option VERBOSE = TRUE in install_github I get the following additional output:
Parsing reponame for 'leeper/tabulizerjars'...
Creating local git repository for tabulizerjars in C:\Users\JOOCAR~1\AppData\Local\Temp\RtmpgnitDP\tabulizerjars1643e0126f5...
Error in git2r::init(d) :
Error in 'git2r_repository_init': Unable to init repository
I read this answer and it seems that it has to do with my username, which is spaced and has accents. But how do I configure this?

Following user @jaySf answer, I run part of the code of his answer (since I've already installed rJava and devtools):
library(rJava) # load and attach 'rJava' now
devtools::install_github("ropensci/tabulizer", args="--no-multiarch")
And got the following error:
> library(rJava) # load and attach 'rJava' now
> devtools::install_github("ropensci/tabulizer", args="--no-multiarch")

I believe that I might have a problem with my username in the file directory path, but I'm not sure. I tried using install_github with ggplot2 --`install_github("wch/ggplot2") -- and it worked fine. If my guess is correct, how can I edit the file path?
Problem solved
I was running R with both 32 bit and 64 bit files installed. I cannot clearly state what were the problems in doing this, since as I ran Sys.getenv("R_ARCH") it returned x64 previously, but when I uninstalled the 32 bit files, it ran perfectly well with @jaySf code.
Follow these steps in given order should work:
install.packages("rJava")
library(rJava) # load and attach 'rJava' now
install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("ropensci/tabulizer", args="--no-multiarch")
I'm using R 3.4.0 on win64, and described the procedure in a former answer.
