_D_e_s_c_r_i_p_t_i_o_n:

     This function is utilized to provide a uniform name of the
     dataframe object (reposDF) stored in the repdatadesc.rda file.

_U_s_a_g_e:

     saveDfRda(reposDF, outFile = "repdatadesc.rda")

_A_r_g_u_m_e_n_t_s:

 reposDF: The repository data.frame 

 outFile: The name of the file to store it in

_D_e_t_a_i_l_s:

     By protocol, all repository data.frames should have the name
     'reposDF' when stored in the repdatadesc file.  As such, this
     function provides a wrapper to force this naming convention.

     Also by convention, in a repository setting the filename is
     "repdatadesc.rda", so one should not deviate from teh defaults.
