angular-fire + firebase functions breaks ng deploy

[wagnermaciel]

Bug description

I experienced a bug where ng add @angular-fire followed by firebase init functions broke ng deploy due to a bug in firebase-tools.

Version info

Angular CLI:
8.3.19

Firebase:
>= 5.5.7 <8

AngularFire:
5.2.3

How to reproduce these conditions

ng new
ng add @angular-fire
firebase init functions
ng deploy (should break)

Debug output

** Output from ng deploy **

** After reinstalling firebase-tools with npm install --save-dev firebase-tools@latest **

Expected behavior

ng deploy deploys the application to Firebase.

Actual behavior

You get an error
TypeError: entry.message.split is not a function

The error is coming from firebase-tools. The bug has been fixed in v7.7.0
Link to the fix

TLDR; If you're getting this error, just run npm install --save-dev firebase-tools@latest

Also, you can observe the actual error message if you console log entry in node_modules/@angular-devkit/core/src/logger/logger.js Logger.next.

I've got firebase-tools 7.12.1, and this is still broken.

Broken for me too with firebase-tools at 7.16.1

As a temporary fix it seems if you delete firebase.json and .firebaserc and then run ng add @angular/fire then it works again.
