Description Matt Hoosier 2021-01-15 17:30:52 UTC 
The main Git bare cloning done during do_fetch doesn't download a copy of the binaries that a repository using Git LFS will eventually want. The checkout operation occurring as part of the do_unpack task, then, does this lazily.

This violates the expectation that all network access happening during do_fetch.
