git lfs

About this tag
Git LFS (Large File Storage) is a Git extension that replaces large files like binaries, archives, or media with text pointers, reducing repository size and improving performance. On Windows 11, setting up Git LFS is straightforward using the official Git for Windows installer, which includes Git Bash, credential helpers, and LFS support. After installation, you can track specific file types with `git lfs track` and ensure LFS is initialized with `git lfs install`. Common pitfalls include forgetting to commit the `.gitattributes` file or not having LFS configured before cloning. Proper setup helps avoid bloated repositories and keeps Git operations fast on Windows.
