I'm trying to use LFS to store some data in-repo, but I need to be able push data between machines on the same network. This doesn't seem to work - git (on my mac) looks for 'git-lfs-authenticate', doesn't find it on the raspberry pi, and dies. Both mac and pi are on git lfs 3.5.1. Git on the mac is 2.45.2, pi is 2.39.2. git lfs env on the mac: trying to clone: (log attached) I also tried ssh:// (Vs. git+ssh) and just giving the pi's address directly, no difference. |

I cargo installed I do seem able to push from the pi to the Macbook, although it's going quite slowly (~ 1 MB/s when they're connected via gigabit ethernet). |

Is it possible or planned to have this installed by the default installer? It took me a little while to work out what was going wrong. |

In general, the choice of what to include in an upstream package—like the Git for Windows project, or the Homebrew However, we do build assets for each of our releases, and some Linux packages which we distribute on Packagecloud. But we don't include other software in these packages, such as the The rationale for that, among other things, is that we expect most users only want the Git LFS client, and not any server-side implementations of the HTTP or SSH object transfer protocols. One other point to consider is that at the moment we don't have an official There is, of course, the Rust program maintained by the developer of the SSH transfer protocol for Git LFS, in the
There are also other non-experimental implementations now as well, in GitLab and, I believe, Gitea. Plus other efforts like the But if we were going to provide releases of a server implementation of the SSH object transfer protocol for Git LFS, I think we'd want to start by developing an official |

git-lfs-transferneeds to be available when git logs in, and by default it seem like my cargo stuff isn't available. I moved it to /usr/local/bin and its working ok now.So the answer is:
git-lfs-transferis available on the remote machine, and thatssh remote git-lfs-transferworks, otherwise lfs will silently fall back to git-lfs-authenticate.
