I keep getting the error when trying to build the vignetee for {disk.frame}. And I think it's due to buggy behaviour with {callr} with NSE.
Is it possible to not use {callr} with RMarkdown? I think {callr} creates a fresh session of R in the background, but if I just use the same session to build Markdown then I should be fine. But I can't find where in the Rmarkdown documentation that I can disable {callr}.

Based on the discussions here https://community.rstudio.com/t/error-with-callr-not-doing-nse-the-way-disk-frame-does-causing-issue-with-knitting-in-rmarkdown/47401
One can simply use rmarkdown::render()
on the file directly to circumvent the issue.
