berks vendor copies entire local directory when vendoring Cookbooks

[leefowlercu]

Hi,

I am using Vagrant-Berkshelf to manage application runtime dependencies in a Vagrant environment of mine. Lately I have been having an issue where my vagrant up and vagrant provision have been taking an extraordinarily long time to run, and, more specifically, take a very long time on the 'Updating Vagrant's Berkshelf' task.

I took a look at Berkshelf's shelf directory to see what could be happening and I discovered that the berkshelf that it had created was being filled with the entire contents of my project directory, including all project files (which is why it is taking so long).

Here is the output of my vagrant up: (note the ctrl-c to end the process)

Bringing machine 'local' up with 'virtualbox' provider...
==> local: Loading Berkshelf datafile...
==> local: Sharing cookbooks with VM
==> local: Checking if box 'ubuntu/trusty64' is up to date...
==> local: A newer version of the box 'ubuntu/trusty64' is available! You currently
==> local: have version '20160516.0.0'. The latest is version '20160518.0.0'. Run
==> local: `vagrant box update` to update.
==> local: Clearing any previously set forwarded ports...
==> local: Updating Vagrant's Berkshelf...
^C==> local: Waiting for cleanup before exiting...
The following berks command failed to execute:

    /usr/local/bin/berks vendor /Users/leefowler/.berkshelf/vagrant-berkshelf/shelves/berkshelf20160518-3480-g1ccdp-local --berksfile /Users/leefowler/Projects/M2R2-Visallo/Berksfile

The stdout and stderr are shown below:
