Nanobox stuck on committing app deploy

[Jarmahent]

I have a sailsjs app that I want to deploy to my nanobox instance. The first time deploying goes smoothly but when i deploy a second time it gets stuck on:

Deploying app :
  ✓ Starting docker container
  ⣟ Uploading :
    Committing app...

Ive looked up previous issues similar to this and someone said that the node_modules folder needs to be ignored so I added it to my .nanoignore file, but it still doesnt work. Its just constantly saying "Committing app...". and "Syncing app over previous deploy..."

What can I do about this?
