Description

The default install when launching the docker image has an empty path for LFS (why?).
If I add /data/git-lfs which is inside the docker volume, I get this:

invalid_lfs_path%!(EXTRA *os.PathError=mkdir /data/git-lfs/: permission denied)

If the docker image has no permissions to add paths, then I suggest there should be one preconfigured that actually works. (otherwise, at this point the user will be confused and/or required to manually open up a shell in the container to create a path for LFS storage which is a bit annoying)
