Git-lfs

Git Large File Storage (LFS) is Article description::an open source plugin created by GitHub that enables the version control system to better track binary blobs. It does so by creating a text-based reference to the blob, then tracking and storing the blob in a location external to the git repository itself; typically on a content server.

Configuration
In order to use git-lfs, your ~/.gitconfig file must be setup with the appropriate filters. Run the following command to do this automatically.

Usage
Binary files must be tracked by file extension. This enables git LFS to make proper distinctions between binary and non-binary files.

GitHub has released a video on YouTube explaining how to utilize git LFS: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLR1RNqJ1Mw

Unmerge
You will want to manually remove everything under [filter "lfs"] in ~/.gitconfig.
