 I've gotten this error several times when run `grunt watch`, and
 [https://wordpress.slack.com/archives/C02RQBWTW/p1569233071368200 several]
 [https://wordpress.slack.com/archives/C18723MQ8/p1510735332000041 others]
 [https://wordpress.slack.com/archives/C18723MQ8/p1472636852000040 have]
 [https://wordpress.slack.com/archives/C18723MQ8/p1463866743000131 too]:

 `Maximum call stack size exceeded`

 It happens because there's a `node_modules` folder somewhere in `src/`,
 and they typically contain too many files for Grunt to handle.

 Configuring `copy:files` to always ignore `node_modules` folders seems
 like it'd remove that friction for people.
