I have set notagrelative because I keep my tags file in the .git folder of my project as described here.
When I navigate to a tag with :Tags, it tries to open .git/src/my-file instead of src/my-file.
If I change this line to let abspath = relpath, it works again. (Obviously that's not a good solution.)

Research direction
Start at autoload/fzf/vim.vim line 804 and reproduce the :Tags navigation with set notagrelative and a tags file under .git. Compare the resolved path with the expected project-relative path, then verify that navigation opens src/my-file rather than .git/src/my-file.
