Build issue with yarn 2 when not in git or svn context

[pebowman]

Describe the bug
I found that a local build of storybook worked fine, but the same thing refused to build in Docker. After much hair-pulling, I discovered that it did work if the compilation occurred in the context of a git repo. The .git directory was quite reasonably being excluded from the Docker image.

In getProjectRoot(), the root is found by looking for a .git, .svn or node_modules directory, with process.cwd() as as fallback. However, in a Docker environment, there will be no .git or .svn and in yarn 2, there is no node_modules. It appears yarn 2 is presenting the cwd as a zip file.

This results in the following in the generated webpack:

module: {
  rules: [
    {
      test: /\.(mjs|tsx?|jsx?)$/,
      use: [ redacted ],
      include: [
        'D:\\react\a\\.yarn\\$virtual\\@storybook-core-virtual-0a602ea853\\0\\cache\\@storybook-core-npm-6.1.18-f25c70fd19-ac341dcf78.zip\\'

With .git present, it's

include: [ 'D:\\react\\a' ]

To Reproduce
Build in yarn 2 after deleting or renaming .git

Expected behavior
Build is successful

System
Repeatable on Windows/Ubuntu on WSL/node:current-alpine Docker image

I'm having the same Issue, cost me about a day to figure this out. As a Workaround, creating an empty .git directory inside the docker build seems to work:

RUN mkdir .git

Note: If you run into this problem, you can create a folder named .svn in your project to trick storybook into using that to detect the project root.

in yarn 2, there is no node_modules. It appears yarn 2 is presenting the cwd as a zip file

Actually there's a node_modules folder in the ZIP file that getProjectRoot is detecting.
