Checkout failing due to git-lfs not being found

[ricardo-noyolalozano]

Pretty much the title. The runner that is running the jobs definitely has git-lfs installed and the action is working most of the time. I've noticed that it has stopped working after I started using containers to run some jobs.

`Hook already exists: pre-push

#!/bin/sh
command -v git-lfs >/dev/null 2>&1 || { echo >&2 "\nThis repository is configured for Git LFS but 'git-lfs' was not found on your path. If you no longer wish to use Git LFS, remove this hook by deleting the 'pre-push' file in the hooks directory (set by 'core.hookspath'; usually '.git/hooks').\n"; exit 2; }
git lfs pre-push "$@"

To resolve this, either:
  1: run `git lfs update --manual` for instructions on how to merge hooks.
  2: run `git lfs update --force` to overwrite your hook.
Error: The process '/usr/bin/git' failed with exit code 2`

I think something is breaking after I run the same action in the container (which works) and then try running the action on another workflow without the container. Not sure what could be happening and am having issues finding anything online that describes the same issue I'm facing.

Curious if you ever found a solution for this. It's unclear where those LFS git hooks are coming from on checkout. For my repo, users have no issues if they clone locally - This only seems to happen in GHA

not much of a solution but a workaround, I run this line before each one of my workflows:
git lfs update --force || true
