Warning on install

[LucieContamin]

When installing the package by doing:
remotes::install_github("Infectious-Disease-Modeling-Hubs/hubEnsembles")

The install prints multiple Warning:

 Warning in utils::tar(filepath, pkgname, compression = compression, compression_level = 9L,  :

It does not seem to impact the install or the usage of the package but might be good to take a look at it to avoid confusion for users.

I guess we could do things like rename the folder the hub is in to just example-hub and choose shorter model names to get to shorter overall file names? maybe those changes should be made in the upstream example-simple-forecast-hub rather than here?

@annakrystalli, do you have any other ideas/suggestions about a good way to deal with this?
