Package Installation From GitHub Error - Possibly File Path - r

I am currently trying to install some packages off of GitHub, but I keep on getting this fatal error. I think it has something to do with the file destination, but I am unsure. Any advice would be appreciated!

The packages should be installed into ‘C:/Users/FirstName Surname/Documents/R/win-library/3.6’ as it says it is doing, however it gives the fatal error when it encounters: 'C:\Users\FirstName' which is different.
Edit: Windows 10, R-3.6.0, RStudio
Thanks!

Upgrading the r package to 4.0.1 version solved this issue

Failing to install Github package, "had non-zero exit status" error

I have been unsuccessful at installing the package 'HonestDiD' from Github. It says that the package in question 'had non-zero exit status.' I followed the instructions given here. Any idea how to solve this issue? Here is the code/full error message.

I don't understand what is wrong here. Any help would be very appreciated.

R package doesn't install from github

I am using RStudio with R (Version 4.0.2) and I am trying to install this climate package from github: https://github.com/SantanderMetGroup/climate4R
when I type: install_github("SantanderMetGroup/climate4R")
I get this error:
Error: Failed to install 'unknown package' from GitHub:
HTTP error 404.
Not Found
Did you spell the repo owner (`SantanderMetGroup`) and repo name (`climate4R`) correctly?
- If spelling is correct, check that you have the required permissions to access the repo.
I also downloaded the zipped package and tried to manually install the package within rstudio and got this error:
Installing package into ‘C:/Users/...../Documents/R/win-library/4.0’
(as ‘lib’ is unspecified)
Warning in install.packages :
cannot open compressed file 'climate4R-master/DESCRIPTION', probable reason 'No such file or directory'
Error in install.packages : cannot open the connection
Why is it not installing? I have downloaded packages from github before with no problems.
UPDATED HERE:
I had already tried what is suggested below, but it also didn't work. I wanted to check first if I had missed something and it was possible to download the package all at once. When I input this:
library(devtools)
install_github(c("SantanderMetGroup/loadeR.java",
"SantanderMetGroup/climate4R.UDG",
"SantanderMetGroup/loadeR",
"SantanderMetGroup/transformeR",
"SantanderMetGroup/visualizeR",
"SantanderMetGroup/downscaleR"))
I get the following error:

As already pointed out, the GitHub Repo is not an R package by itself.
Here from their GitHub Readme how to install their collection of packages that form the climate4R toolset.
library(devtools)
install_github(c("SantanderMetGroup/loadeR.java",
"SantanderMetGroup/climate4R.UDG",
"SantanderMetGroup/loadeR",
"SantanderMetGroup/transformeR",
"SantanderMetGroup/visualizeR",
"SantanderMetGroup/downscaleR"))
In order to install this package, I had to install this:JDK 13
https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/javase-jdk13-downloads.html
This allowed each of the packages to be installed correctly.

R: unable to install gbm.auto package from Github

I'm trying to install the package gbm.auto via github, but the download does not seem to work. How can I solve this? I am working on a windows 10 Pro (R version 3.6.1, Rstudio version 1.2.5042). This is the error I get:

githubinstall or remotes::install_github.
