I guess it would help to know a bit about the machine you're running on. Are /tmp and /home on the same disk/partition?

I'm assuming not, and so the reason is that io.mv is for some reason implemented with fs.rename:

• [Windows] io.mv does not move files across different drives (d:\source to c:\destination) actions/toolkit#706
• fs.rename() can't move file between two different disks nodejs/node-v0.x-archive#2703

[SebastianM-C]

From what I understand no. /tmp is on a tmpfs and /home is on a /dev/sdbx filesystem.

[christopher-dG]

Ok yeah makes sense. I'll figure out an alternative mv.
