The 'backupskip' option; the default value includes /tmp/*.

Please excuse me if I'm wrong, but you seem unaware how good vim's
help is. Mucking around with the whatever option, it's a good idea to
try

:help 'whatever

(that's a single quote). :help 'backup tells about backupskip, and
hyper-links to it.
