I think I've finally found the cause and a workaround:

I suspect that you have git-lfs version greater than 2.3.4 installed on your server and gitea user has a .gitconfig file containing:

[filter "lfs"]
	clean = git-lfs clean -- %f
	smudge = git-lfs smudge -- %f
	process = git-lfs filter-process
	required = true

If you remove that that should act as a workaround.

This is a duplicate of #732
