Please make sure you have the newest version of the devtools package. This is 1.5 at the moment.To do so run

install.packages("devtools")

Then you have 3 options:

1:) You can try using different parameter alternatives in the devtools package.

install_github("Momocs",username="jfpalomeque")

2:) Another way is trying to download the zip file and install it with the normal install.packages() function in R with:

install.packages(file_name_and_path, repos = NULL, type="source")

3:) You can also just install it from cran with

install.packages("Momocs")

as it is the same version and the same author as the github package.

You may want to try devtools::install_github("vbonhomme/Momocs") instead. As stated before, you need devtools to make it work.

Also, Momocs 1.0.0 is on CRAN so you can simply: install.packages("Momocs").

Have a look to the vignette for a nice entry point into the package. And I'm here to help if required.

Install the latest R packages from github repository.

Steps to install R packages if you don't have internet access on your server/machine.

First you need to install R packages devtools and git2r (git2r not mandatory, it depends on the package you would like to install )
Download the master zip file from git package location
Unzip the package on a windows path
Create a source: source <- devtools:::source_pkg("windows path/master directory name")
install(source)

Hope it helps.
