Description

Hey 👋 I believe an R environment can now be described by the following in a runtime.txt file:

r-3.5-YYYY-MM-DD

But that doesn't seem to be reflected in the current documentation here?

Contributor guide

Research direction
Check the current documentation for runtime.txt format and verify if the r 3.5 YYYY MM DD format is supported. Update the docs accordingly.
