Hi @Persedes !

Wow, that is awful. Investigating right now. Thank you for reporting it! 🙏 
Indeed, the issue is caused by dvc being confused by the trailing `/` in the `models/mlr/production/`. A workaround for now is to not include the trailing slash. Will send a fix soon...
Reproduction script:
```
#!/bin/bash

rm -rf erepo repo git_repo
mkdir erepo repo git_repo

maindir=$(pwd)
set -ex
pushd git_repo
git init --bare --quiet
popd

pushd erepo
git init --quiet
git remote add origin $maindir/git_repo
dvc init -q

mkdir models
echo model >> models/1

dvc add models
git add -A
git commit -am "add stuff"

git push origin master
rm models/1
rm -rf .dvc/cache

popd

pushd repo
dvc get $maindir/erepo models/
```

Expected behavior: 
- do not remove whole `repo` for starters
- we should probably rethink the output in this case, seems like the problem related to some recent UI issues #2839, #2691
I have found another oddity, which might be related to the bug above. `dvc get` keeps nesting outputs. 

The first `get` pulls a folder with two tsv files. 
The second one creates a `prepared` folder inside that one. I would have expected `dvc get` to either do nothing or overwrite the existing tsv files when pulling from a different branch/ commit. 

```
# start in an empty folder
$ ls

# pull output from a folder and define the output path
$ dvc get https://github.com/iterative/example-get-started data/prepared -o dvc_files/
$ ls dvc_files/
test.tsv  train.tsv

# running it again creates a prepared folder inside of the defined output_path
$ dvc get https://github.com/iterative/example-get-started data/prepared -o dvc_files/
# prepared gets nested inside of dvc_files
$ ls dvc_files/
prepared  test.tsv  train.tsv
```
@efiop , are you working on this one?
> https://github.com/iterative/dvc/issues/3105#issuecomment-573854955

Nesting only happens once, this is due to `resolve_output`. Can't tell what was the original intention behind those lines: 

https://github.com/iterative/dvc/blob/fe635a5040c9d593cd1bdef3fa31f4df7af85259/dvc/utils/__init__.py#L336-L344

@efiop ?
@pared , I was trying to write a test based on your reproduction script. But didn't understand why you were `git push`ing. Could you explain it for me?

By the way, here's what I have so far:

```python
def test_error(tmp_dir, dvc, erepo_dir):
    with tempfile.TemporaryDirectory() as remote:
        git.Repo.init(remote)

        with erepo_dir.chdir():
            erepo_dir.scm_gen("dir/file", "text", commit="create file")
            erepo_dir.dvc_add("dir")
            origin = erepo_dir.scm.repo.create_remote("origin", remote)
            origin.push()

        os.remove(fspath(erepo_dir / "dir" / "file"))
        shutil.rmtree(fspath(erepo_dir / ".dvc" / "cache"))

        dvc.get(erepo_dir, "dir")
        assert git.Repo(remote)
```

It passes, so I'm not sure if I'm translating it correctly :confused: 
@mroutis, `git push` is unnecessary, dunno how it got there, removing it still makes the bug reproducible.

[EDIT]
@mroutis, I modified your test a little bit:
```python
def test_error(tmp_dir, dvc, erepo_dir):
    with erepo_dir.chdir():
        erepo_dir.gen("dir/file", "text") # just gen here, not scm_gen
        erepo_dir.dvc_add("dir", commit="add dir")

    os.remove(fspath(erepo_dir / "dir" / "file"))
    shutil.rmtree(fspath(erepo_dir / ".dvc" / "cache"))

    try:
        with mock.patch("dvc.prompt.confirm", return_value=True):
            dvc.get(fspath(erepo_dir), "dir/") # note that we get "dir/" not "dir"
    except Exception:
        pass
    finally:
        assert tmp_dir.exists()
```
@pared , great! Thanks for clearing it out)
@pared , I still don't get it. Tests are passing on my side, I'm loosing it on this one :sweat_smile: 
@mroutis even the one that I provided?

dvc get can can delete the current directory
First off, I saw it coming, had my stuff backed up etc, so no harm done. 
I was trying to test out dvc get to pull models from a different project and the cache must not have been present in the remote:

`models/mlr/production` is defined as the output of a dvc file. 

```
$ dvc get <internal_repo> models/mlr/production/ --rev <name of branch>

ERROR: unexpected error - [Errno 2] No such file or directory
```

Once I saw the `File '.' won't be created.  file '.' is going to be removed. ` I knew what was going to happen, but was surprised that dvc lets you do that. (It wiped out my whole git repo ;))
