  1. one has to get a new fork from dmlc/xgboost like this one

  2. because of the use of submodules, devtools doesn't work anymore with installing the R-packages. One has to remove the submodules in the following manner:

  1. bring back the necessary customizations that we've made here

  2. test the new repo with avant-analytics and run("demo_xgb_R")

  3. delete the old copy of xgboost under avantcredit github group and transfer the new fork's ownership to avantcredit

  4. update lockfile.yml to point to the new R-package
