LFS Support
Last updated: 2023-12-25 17:08:18
This document describes how to use the Git Large File Storage (LFS) extension.
Feature Overview
CODING supports the Git LFS extension. You can use Git LFS to commit large files of any size without occupying Git repository storage space.
Install
Note:
The Git LFS plugin requires Git 1.8.5 or later.
Linux
1. Download the
git-lfs installation package.curl -s https://packagecloud.io/install/repositories/github/git-lfs/script.deb.sh | sudo bash
2. Install
git-lfs.sudo apt-get install git-lfs
3. Deploy the LFS tool to Git.
git lfs install
Mac

/usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
2. Install
git-lfs.brew install git-lfs
3. Deploy the LFS tool to Git.
git lfs install
Windows
1. Download and install the Windows installer.
2. Run the Windows installer.
3. Run
git lfs install in the command line.How to Use
Track files
Git LFS does not process large files by default. Use the
git lfs track command to track large files.Track a single file
Use the command
git lfs track "coding.png" to track the file "coding.png".Track files with a specific extension
Use the command
git lfs track "*.png" to track files with the ".png" extension. This tracks both existing and future files with the ".png" extension.View tracked file patterns
Run the
git lfs track command:Listing tracked patterns*.png (.gitattributes)
Commit large files
You need to commit the ".gitattributes" file to the repository when committing code. After the commit is complete, run the
git lfs ls-files command to view the tracked LFS file list.f05131d24d * cat.png7db207c488 * dog.png
After the code is pushed to the remote repository, tracked LFS files will be shown after "Git LFS":
$ git push origin masterGit LFS: (2 of 2 files) 12.58 MB / 12.58 MBCounting objects: 2, done.Delta compression using up to 8 threads.Compressing objects: 100% (5/5), done.Writing objects: 100% (5/5), 548 bytes | 0 bytes/s, done.Total 5 (delta 1), reused 0 (delta 0)To https://e.coding.net/coding/coding-manual.git67fcf6a..47b2002 master -> master
Clone a remote repository containing Git LFS files
Use the
git lfs clone command to clone a remote repository containing "Git LFS" files to a local machine.$ git lfs clone https://e.coding.net/coding/coding-manual.gitCloning into 'coding-manual'remote: Counting objects: 16, done.remote: Compressing objects: 100% (12/12), done.remote: Total 16 (delta 3), reused 9 (delta 1)Receiving objects: 100% (16/16), done.Resolving deltas: 100% (3/3), done.Checking connectivity...done.Git LFS: (4 of 4 files) 0 B / 100 B
