I tried packaging up my experiment project, but had to omit some files (e.g. log files) and that resulted in the crash being avoided. So, no, I really can't provide a reproduction of the crash. How do I tell webpack to ignore certain paths completely? |

I am exploring writing a plugin for webpack. As part of that, I'm working in a simple project with two dependencies. One of those dependencies is
npm linked, and as a result has a lot of extraneous files that would not be present whennpm installing the dependency. When I runnpx webpackon this simple project, I get:This is due to webpack internally using the spread operator which is susceptible to call stack overflow:
webpack/lib/ContextModuleFactory.js
Lines 425 to 427 in 8ca8b7d
A "fix" for this would be:
