It seems you need to ignore node_modules folder. To do that just add ui/node_modules/**/* line to your .gitignore file.

First, if those files were already committed in the past, you would need to remove them (from Git, not from your disk) in order for them to be ignored:

git rm --cached -r ui/node_modules

Second, even before committing, you can check if your .gitingore works with:

git check-ignore -v -- ui/node_modules/aFile

(replace aFile with an actual file)

If it does return nothing, double-check the content of your .gitignore.
If that file is directly in the ui folder, right above node_modules, then the rule needs to be

node_modules/
