Error processing tar file with symlinks

[soltysh]

When I'm trying to build images from https://github.com/openshift/oc or https://github.com/openshift/cluster-kube-apiserver-operator I'm getting:

$ make images
imagebuilder --allow-pull -t registry.svc.ci.openshift.org/ocp/4.2:cluster-kube-apiserver-operator -f ./Dockerfile.rhel7 .
--> FROM registry.svc.ci.openshift.org/ocp/builder:golang-1.12 as builder
--> WORKDIR /go/src/github.com/openshift/cluster-kube-apiserver-operator
--> COPY . .
API error (500): Error processing tar file(exit status 1): invalid symlink "/go/src/github.com/openshift/cluster-kube-apiserver-operator/vendor/github.com/coreos/etcd/Documentation/README.md" -> "docs.md"
make: *** [Makefile:20: image-ocp-cluster-kube-apiserver-operator] Error 1

Removing that particular link give me a similar error about a different link. Looks like there's a problem with symlinks.

@mrunalp @rhatdan do you know who owns the failing part / who is the right person to ping?
