Introduction

Yesterday I had to commit a repository for a game I had decompiled (post coming soon I hope) and found out the hard way how painful it is to git push large files to GitLab, especially on a slow connection. This led me to learn how to use GitLab LFS to do it the proper way. Please note that these are the steps I did for GitLab not GitHub. Even if GitHub has a very similar process it’s not what we’ll cover here.
