[Bug]: zapier build follows invalid symlinks when copying

[cscorley]

Bug Description

Hi team,

I'm running into an issue with my local development environment when running zapier build, it will fail on the first step:

✖ Copying project to temp directory
 ›   Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, stat
 ›   'hi'

FWIW, this file is in my .gitingore. It would be great if the filter for this step excluded those .gitignore files as well. I see it does this on zipping. Seems like this should occur much sooner.

To be honest, I am not sure why it needs to copy into a separate directory in the first place.

Thanks!

Reproduction Steps

1. Create a symlink to a file that does not exist: ln -s bye hi
2. Run zapier build

Thanks for reporting this bug! I've gone ahead and created a ticket in our internal issue tracker: PDE-4679.

Fixed by #737. We now display a warning message when detecting an invalid symlink and don't crash the build process. Thanks for reporting the issue!
