vite dev fails when using a local commonjs module

[UltiRequiem]

Describe the bug

I have a package.json like

{
  "name": "use-github-react-js",
  "private": true,
  "version": "0.0.0",
  "scripts": {
    "dev": "vite",
    "build": "vite build",
    "preview": "vite preview"
  },
  "dependencies": {
    "react": "^17.0.2",
    "react-dom": "^17.0.2",
    "use-github": "file:../.."
  },
  "devDependencies": {
    "@vitejs/plugin-react": "^1.0.7",
    "vite": "^2.8.0"
  }
}

The important part is where I import use-github, it's being defined like that because the project is located in an example directory, it's important to mention that this project is not a monorepo!

• Follow our Code of Conduct
• Read the Contributing Guidelines.
• Read the docs.
• Check that there isn't already an issue that reports the same bug to avoid creating a duplicate.
• Make sure this is a Vite issue and not a framework-specific issue. For example, if it's a Vue SFC related bug, it should likely be reported to https://github.com/vuejs/core instead.
• Check that this is a concrete bug. For Q&A open a GitHub Discussion or join our Discord Chat Server.
• The provided reproduction is a minimal reproducible example of the bug.
