I feel it is OS (OSX bug), does not reproduce on newer 11.1 (appveyor has 10.15.7), [asked on SO](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/66103552/osx-mkdir-tmp-dir-no-such-file-or-directory-under-private-while-ls-can-l) anyways with minimalistic example. I believe it is the `tmp -> private/tmp` somehow throws it off.

<summary>But I also wonder why git-annex uses relative path for get whenever remote is specified via an absolute one?</summary>

IIRC it might have been done to minimize the path length so we have a better chance to not hit limits. But in this case, if anything - it makes it only longer.
PS initially posted with another \"wisdom\" that relative path was off but only then spotted that it was `/var` vs `/private/var` ;)
