### Please describe the problem.
Unable to use webapp after creating annex. Error `The file /annex/webapp.html does not exist.` is shown.
### What steps will reproduce the problem?
Create annex, either using webapp or command line. Kill the webapp and attempt to relaunch.
### What version of git-annex are you using? On what operating system?
git-annex version: 5.20150205
OS X Version: 10.10.3 (14D136)
Installed using homebrew
### Please provide any additional information below.
It appears that git-annex is using an absolute path, rather than a relative path pointing to `.git/annex/webapp.html`.
Manually opening the file at `.git/annex/webapp.html` does however show the correct web interface.
[[!format sh """

> that time from the relative path conversion, since fixed, which IIRC
