PSDeploy | Simple PowerShell based deployments | Continuous Deployment library

Problem:
I am unable to successfully publish a non-monolithic script module to my local PowerShell Gallery when using PowerShell 5.1 and my module contains 7 or more functions. Publishes fine with 6 or less functions.

Example: FunctionsToExport = 'Get-Test1', 'Get-Test2 ', 'Get-Test3', 'Get-Test4', 'Get-Test5', 'Get-Test6', 'Get-Test7'

The publish always hangs at 'VERBOSE: Performing the operation "Publish-Module" on target…', but never completes.

I am not seeing any errors, so I am not sure why it is hanging.

What does work:
I can successfully publish my non-monolithic script module to my local PowerShell Gallery when it contains 6 or less functions.

Example: FunctionsToExport = 'Get-Test1', 'Get-Test2 ', 'Get-Test3', 'Get-Test4', 'Get-Test5', 'Get-Test6'

This works fine: VERBOSE: Successfully published module…

If I simply add one more function and update the manifest, I can no longer publish without it hanging again at the same place.

I am pretty sure I am missing a step, but I am having trouble figuring out what I missed.

I am learning the non-monolithic script module design from Mike F Robbins by reading his blog posts and watching his presentations. The gist of this design is each function is in a separate PS1 file that is dot sourced from the PSM1 file.

Summary of how I build my script modules:

• Create new script module scaffolding using custom Plaster template.
• Add functions to the folder named Public.
• Update module version and FunctionsToExport section in manifest.
• Use PsDeploy or Publish-Module to deploy to a local PowerShell Gallery.
• The local PowerShell Gallery is just a folder on my data drive G:\JnPowerShellGallery.

This is how I am publishing my module to my local PSGallery.
