git-lfs-track(1) - View or add Git LFS paths to Git attributes

SYNOPSIS

git lfs track [options] [...]

DESCRIPTION

Start tracking the given patterns(s) through Git LFS. The argument is written to .gitattributes. If no paths are provided, simply list the currently-tracked paths.

The gitattributes documentation states that patterns use the gitignore pattern rules to match paths.

OPTIONS

• --verbose -v: If enabled, have git lfs track log files which it will touch. Disabled by default.

• --dry-run -d: If enabled, have git lfs track log all actions it would normally take (adding entries to .gitattributes, touching files on disk, etc) without performing any mutative operations to the disk.

  git lfs track --dry-run [files] also implicitly mocks the behavior of passing the --verbose, and will log in greater detail what it is doing.

  Disabled by default.

EXAMPLES

• List the patterns that Git LFS is currently tracking:

  git lfs track

• Configure Git LFS to track GIF files:

  git lfs track '*.gif'
