General Usage

Git LFS is a system for managing and versioning large files in association with a Git repository. Instead of storing the large files within the Git repository as blobs, Git LFS stores special pointer files in the repository, while storing the actual file contents on a Git LFS server.

NOTE: The usefulness of such is likely to be limited on an HPC cluster like those at UMD where the compute nodes do not have access to the public internet.

This module will add the git-lfs command to your path.
