So, I have a repo in bitbucket which is private the depends on another private repo. As of the latest devtools version (1.12.0), it fails with a 401 unauthorized. I'm using dependencies=TRUE and sending auth_user and password in install_bitbucket.

Also, the dependency I can install no problem first, so it's an issue when the dependency is private.

Just wanted to mention that I'm experiencing the same issue with private GitHub repositories that depend on packages in other GitHub private repositories. I installed the dependency package from the other private repo first and the install went through without a hitch. But during the installation of the main package from the private GitHub repo it still tries to install the dependency package even though it is already available. FWIW I am using packrat with this project.

I'm also seeing this issue. Exact same situation that @moosilauke18 mentions, but for private packages on GitHub.

I'm still getting an error unless dependencies = FALSE
