developer signature problem in macos (catalina) #3714

Description

I'd like to use git-lfs in my macos catalina machine. I'm aware that catalina is in beta release, but still I wonder what will happen to git-lfs in a few months (?) when catalina is released.

My OS can find the existing git-lfs, i.e.

$ which git-lfs
/usr/local/bin/git-lfs

but when I try to run it (from the terminal, or in other ways), I get an error message stating that

"git-lfs" can't be opened because Apple cannot check it for malicious software

I know that I can get around that with an xattr -d com.apple.quarantine command, but I sort of like how apple is being cautious.

I wonder ... is there a chance the binaries could be signed in the future, to avoid this problem?

Again, to emphasize, I'm using Catalina, so it's not what most mac people will have, for a few months at least.

Thanks!!
