Description

Ran into this one today, putting it here in case anyone else hits the same issue. Running npx amplify sandbox will result in a segmentation fault when using node v20.12 if there are any wildcards in the .gitignore file due to an issue with parcelWatcher.

Workaround - rollback to node v20.11 until resolved.

parcel-bundler/watcher#170

thanks for reporting, I was using Node v.20.2 and found the same error, I rolled Node back to v.20.11.0 and sandbox is working again.

Thank you!

nvm install --lts bringing me to v20.13.1 worked for me
