My .gitattributes file has a single line:

*.exe filter=lfs diff=lfs merge=lfs -text

git lfs ls-files shows me tracking 7 different *.exe files.

I want to track another file, which is already part of the repository.

When I execute the command git lfs track "CacheFiles\Development_EntitlementFlatCache.dat I get the error "CacheFiles\\Development_EntitlementFlatCache.dat" already supported.

I check my .gitattributes files, and it is unchanged.

When I try adding a different .dat file, it works fine.

Why might it be saying that this file is supported, when it isn't being tracked? Why is it preventing me from tracking this *.dat file, but not other *.dat files?

It turns out that the problem was that there was a .gitattributes file in the CacheFiles directory.

It really was tracking that file already.
