Weird interaction trying to load tidygraph from Github on RStudio.cloud

github
#1

I'm getting an odd error message when I try to install tidygraph from github:

> install_github("thomasp85/tidygraph")
Downloading GitHub repo thomasp85/tidygraph@master
from URL https://api.github.com/repos/thomasp85/tidygraph/zipball/master
Installing tidygraph
Installation failed: cannot open the connection
Warning messages:
1: In normalizePath(path) :
  path[1]="/home/docker/plogr_0.2.0.tar.gz": No such file or directory
2: In read.dcf(path) :
  cannot open compressed file '/home/docker/plogr_0.2.0.tar.gz/DESCRIPTION', probable reason 'No such file or directory'
>

Any thoughts on what's up? This installs fine on my local Mac. It looks like a path issue of some kind.
