Feature Request: Activate mirroring of LFS data

[ArmainAP]

Currently all repositories mirror without LFS data by default.
If you want to mirror LFS data, you have to manually activate it post migration and do a sync job.

This is quite dangerous, as many users might backup their repositories only to find out later that they are missing the LFS pointers.

@ArmainAP This I did not realise this thanks. will check it out. But I am quite busy at the moment with other issues. Would appreciate a Community PR on this issue.

No worries! At least it is visible for now. I might try to look into it tomorrow.

Any tips or advice for starting out considering I am not familiar with the code base?

There is readme and the docs also a contribution markdown file. that should be a good start.

@ArmainAP I have added it by adding the lfs flag to the api call when creating the mirror on gitea as provided on thier docs. But i have not had the time to test it.

you need to have LFS turned on (LFS_START_SERVER = true in Gitea config) feel free to test it out v3.3.0
