Git-lfs Installation

Linux

Debian and Ubuntu

For Ubuntu 18.04, Debian 10, and newer versions.

curl -s https://packagecloud.io/install/repositories/github/git-lfs/script.deb.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt-get install git-lfs

# For global installation
git lfs install

# For existing repository installation only
git lfs install --local

NOTE: An additional --skip-smudge can be added to skip automatic downloading of objects on clone or pull. Conversely, it would require a manual git lfs pull every time a new commit is checked out on your repository. This is more useful for cases where you don’t always want to download/checkout every large file.

Uninstall

# For global uninstall
git lfs uninstall

# For local uninstall
git lfs uninstall --local
