git archive of a subdirectory of the repo does not include LFS files (you get pointers instead) #5343
Description
Describe the bug
If I archive with e.g. git archive --prefix=repro/ -o ../repro.tgz HEAD or even git archive --prefix=repro/ -o ../repro.tgz HEAD src/ the lfs files are properly included in the archive.
However, if I archive with e.g. git archive --prefix=repro/ -o ../repro.tgz HEAD:src (which does not have the same effect as git archive --prefix=repro/ -o ../repro.tgz HEAD src/ ; the HEAD:src param will strip the src/ prefix in all paths of the archive, while HEAD src/ will select src/ but not strip the src/ prefix from the paths)
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Clone a repository which contains LFS files.
- Create an archive by selecting a sub root for what to put in it with a syntax like
HEAD:src - Unpack the archive elsewhere
- The LFS files are replaces by their pointers
Expected behavior
I expected to get the actual content for the archive LFS files, and not their pointers.
System environment
Tested on Ubuntu 20.04 and Debian 11.
