Description

For some PTD deployments such as academy.posit.team, we want to be able to control the default version of R that is used to match the version in internal.posit.academy.

The PTD site configuration needs to have optional support for setting rsession-which as described at https://docs.posit.co/ide/server-pro/admin/r/configuring_default.html and making that setting appear in the rserver.conf when the setting is present.


Migrated from rstudio/ptd#2190

No source file or test is named. Start by tracing the PTD site configuration and the code that generates rserver.conf, then consult the linked rsession-which documentation. Done means the optional setting is accepted and, when present, appears in rserver.conf.
