Did you mean to follow that with an asterisk:
grep yvertohor --include={*.R,*.Rmd} *
Otherwise, grep is waiting for text to appear on stdin. Without -r,
you have to give grep a list of file(s) to search. This is stated
in the second paragraph of the man page DESCRIPTION.
You could also have used
grep yvertohor *.R *.Rmd
