Questions tagged [git-lfs]

Questions about Git Large File Storage. LFS extends Git (but is not itself Git); use this tag for git-lfs questions instead of the plain Git tag. Do not confuse this with the "Linux-from-scratch" LFS tag.

An open source Git extension for versioning large files.

Git Large File Storage (LFS) replaces large files such as audio samples, videos, datasets, and graphics with text pointers inside Git, while storing the file contents on a remote server like GitHub.com or GitHub Enterprise.
