According to [this page](https://git-annex.branchable.com/submodules/), `git-annex` should automatically convert the `.git` file of submodules into a symlink. However, I have a repository where on some machines, this doesn't happen.
$ file .git
.git: ASCII text
$ git-annex info
git-annex: First run: git-annex init
$ file .git
.git: ASCII text
Even more mysteriously, it works on some *other* checkouts of the repository *on the same machine*.

Ignore the remark about different behaviour on the same machine; I was looking at the wrong thing.
It does appear that GitHub Actions does not correctly fetch the `annex` directory for submodules, which must be the source of the error.
