Git: LFS Track

When you add a new type of large file to your repository, you’ll need to tell Git LFS to track it by specifying a pattern using the git lfs track command:

$ git lfs track "*.ogg"
Tracking *.ogg

Note that the quotes around "*.ogg" are important. Omitting them will cause the wildcard to be expanded by your shell, and individual entries will be created for each .ogg file in your current directory.

The patterns supported by Git LFS are the same as those supported by .gitignore.

These patterns are relative to the directory in which you ran the git lfs track command. To keep things simple, it is best to run git lfs track from the root of your repository. Note that Git LFS does not support negative patterns like .gitignore does.

You can stop tracking a particular pattern with Git LFS by simply removing the appropriate line from your .gitattributes file, or by running the git lfs untrack command.
