Can you do a git clean -xfd and try again?

[octoploid]

Oh, I already did. It doesn't help.

[ramya-rao-a]

@Tyriar had another idea of using gulp vscode-linux-x64 --max_old_space_size=4096 to ensure node has enough memory

If the issue is still isn't fixed, I'll try on an linux machine tomorrow.

[octoploid]

Unfortunately --max_old_space_size=4096 doesn't help.

[Tyriar]

I can't seem to reproduce and our build machines seem fine as well. I'm running npm@3.10.10, perhaps that's the issue? Could you try running npm i -g npm@3.10.10 and seeing if that fixes it?

You could also try installing that particular module in a new folder and see if you run into a problem:

mkdir tmp
cd tmp
npm init -y
npm i -S git://github.com/ramya-rao-a/css-parser.git#370c480ac103bd17c7bcfb34bf5d577dc40d3660
npm list

@Tyriar Updating to npm@3.10.10 does fix the issue. Thanks.
Maybe you should mention it in your documentation?
