It was working fine before my last to commit. What I have done in the last two commits are I remove all .DS_Store files in the last commit and added Firebase deploy config files and install cloud function dependencies via Yarn in the last second commit.
What I have tried to resolve the issues, but the issue persists.
1) Delete all node modules via rm -rf node_modules and re-install them npm install (dependencies were installed via Yarn)
2) Remove the project and clone from the origin
3) Revert back to early commit (issue persists even I revert back to the initial commit and re-install all the dependencies of course)
4) Restart Mac 😅
5) Update .ember-cli file and re-run ember init setup process

Answer 1

The issues is caused by
That plugin looks like it was built for an older version of broccoli, but the basic problem seems that its write function doesn't handle symlinks to directories.
