git archive remote with JGit
Can I perform a git archive from a remote repository without cloning through JGit? The idea is to improve my current clone and make it lighter by just bringing the files I need.

No, JGit's archive command can only operate on a local repository. You will need to first (temporarily) clone the remote repository.
