Description

Trying to deploy this project to Github Pages via the gh-pages dependency, but keep receiving a 'filename too long' error that stalls the deploy. Currently, the filename referenced in the static folder inside public looks to be a Microsoft license file that doesn't appear when building the minimal starter project.

Reproduction Link

Not able to reproduce via minimal project

Steps to Reproduce

Not able to reproduce.

See actual project

Expected Result

Deployment of the public folder to Github pages

Actual Result

The following output in the terminal when running yarn deploy:
