### Please describe the problem.
I have a directory remote with importtree=yes. In that remote, I have some symlinks that are broken. (Long story; this is a file server and they work on the system that has mounted them, but are broken here.)
### What steps will reproduce the problem?
I've added it with `git config remote.source.annex-tracking-branch main:$REPO`. When I run `git annex sync`, I get:
```
commit
On branch adjusted/main(unlocked)
nothing to commit, working tree clean
ok
list source
git-annex: Unable to list contents of source: [redacted]: getFileStatus: does not exist (No such file or directory)
failed
git-annex: sync: 1 failed
```
### What version of git-annex are you using? On what operating system?
8.20210223-2 on Debian
### Please provide any additional information below.
I would like git-annex to either:
1. Store the symlink as a symlink, or
2. Ignore bad symlinks
### Have you had any luck using git-annex before? (Sometimes we get tired of reading bug reports all day and a lil' positive end note does wonders)
