Currently investigating if this is caused by using a later version of Git-LFS (v1.1.0) or something else.

[paulsputer]

Not caused by later version of Git-LFS. LFS commands work fine on debug installation. Main difference is debug uses localAuth where as production uses LDAP auth. However, exception would imply that repositoryModel passed to userModel is null.

[paulsputer]

Production server runs via reverse proxy and reroutes URI traffic /git to gitblit. However the Regex to identify the repository is ^(.*?)/(r|git)/(.*?)/info/lfs/objects/(batch" and therefore assumes the r/ is part of the repository path.

@gitblit I used both r (Constants.R_PATH) and git (Constants.GIT_PATH) in the regex as I noticed WebModule.java serves on both. Searching the code though it looks as though the git path is a legacy value and all other places (FederationManager, ServicesManager,RpcServlet, TicketNotifier) use only r. Is this correct? Either it looks like I am safe to remove the git option from the regex so will push a PR to fix this.

[gitblit]

/git/ is a legacy path but an important one to preserve.
