### Please describe the problem.
"git annex unlock" with an absolute path appears to do nothing. Is this a feature or a bug?
### What steps will reproduce the problem?
[[!format sh """
> mkdir git_annex_test && cd git_annex_test/
> git init
> git annex init "Local copy"
> touch foo.txt
> git annex add foo.txt
> git commit -m "Checkin"
> git annex unlock foo.txt (correct behavior)
> git annex lock --force foo.txt
> git annex unlock /absolute/path/to/git_annex_test/foo.txt (appears to do nothing)
