Question

I've duplicated a repo into a newer repo but when doing a git clone on the new repo it's unable to download the files using the LFS pointers and I get an error when smudge is used... e.g... "Error downloading object. Object not found on server"

Steps:

git clone --bare https://github.com/myuser/old-repo.git
cd old-repository.git
git push --mirror https://github.com/myuser/new-repo.git

git clone https://github.com/myuser/new-repo.git
[error.....git-lfs.exe smudge --- somefile.....Error downloading object]

The branches and commit histories look fine but LFS fails to download the required files. Is there another method when using git-lfs?

似乎正好回答了你的问题。您错过的重要部分是git lfs push/pull：

git clone --bare https://hostname/exampleuser/old-repository.git
cd old-repository.git
git lfs fetch --all
git push --mirror https://hostname/exampleuser/new-repository.git
git lfs push --all https://github.com/exampleuser/new-repository.git

Answer 2

钩子和插件等都是repo-local配置，如果你的git-lfs设置在某种程度上很难做到第二次提交repo-setup脚本来执行它并在第一次检出时运行它。

Answer 3

您还可以使用git协议进行克隆，LFS资产仍将通过http下拉，这可能会产生密码提示，具体取决于您的LFS服务器，因为预共享的sshs密钥不会用于LFS资产的身份验证。

 git clone git@github.com:username/my_lfs_repo.git destination_dir
