We should avoid huge file tree path structure

[ziadhany]

file structure Look like this: aboutcode-org/federatedcode#3

vulnerablecode-data/aboutcode-vulnerabilities/1a/VCID-1aqn-grcz-ykgu.yml
vulnerablecode-data/aaboutcode-packages-alpine-0/alpine/apr/VCID-g3j9-zdd6-aaad.yaml
vulnerablecode-data/aaboutcode-packages-alpine-0/alpine/apr/alpine-advancecomp.yaml

Currently, the repository size is less than 300MB as it is just a sample. However, we plan to store millions of files in the future.

GitHub Team's Response to the Bug in Pull Request #3:

you are noticing is due to the huge file tree path in PR which affects only that specific PR and as such it does not present a denial of service vulnerability.

For this, we would recommend you distribute the directories into no more that a few thousand files/subdirectories in a given directory to avoid scenarios like such.

I will share the entire report with you from GitHub after the disclosure.
