### Please describe the problem.
Had some datalad command failing at either `annex add` or `commit` and tried to reproduce with minimal example but failed, overall: if config is set to use
```
❯ git config annex.dbdir
/tmp/cache/git-annex
```
and leading `/tmp/cache` does not exist then in some (e.g. whatever happens during `git pull --ff-only`):
```
❯ git pull --ff-only
...
create mode 100644 cron-20221228/build-windows.yaml-896-ef8b9610-success/test-datalad (release)/8_Install.txt
create mode 100644 cron-20221228/build-windows.yaml-896-ef8b9610-success/test-datalad (release)/9_Configure service.txt
git-annex: /tmp/cache/git-annex: createDirectory: does not exist (No such file or directory)
❯ git annex version
git-annex version: 10.20221003
```
or could be even more fun:
```
❯ git pull --ff-only

and if I precreate leading one -- seems to be feeling ok
```
❯ mkdir /tmp/cache
