Enable LFS for a repository

Enabling LFS involves changes to the All-Projects project.

1. Run the following commands to enable LFS for a repository. These commands use certain protocol, username, Gerrit server hostname, repository name and email address for illustration purposes. You must use your own values and credentials for your environment. For simplicity SSH is used. You can also use HTTP or HTTPS.
   • git init All-Projects && cd All-Projects
   • git fetch ssh://admin@ctf-centos72-dev-box.collab.net:29418/All-Projects refs/meta/config
   • git checkout FETCH_HEAD
   • git config --file lfs.config lfs."test_repo".enabled true
   • git add lfs.config && git commit --author "Admin <root@ctf-centos72-dev-box.collab.net>" -m 'Enable LFS for test_repo'
   • git push ssh://admin@ctf-centos72-dev-box.collab.net:29418/All-Projects HEAD:refs/meta/config

   You can use these commands to enable LFS for a repo by just changing the repository name in the git config --file lfs.config lfs."type_the_repository_name_here".enabled true command.

Verify the LFS configuration for repositories

2. You can verify the LFS configuration directly in Gerrit's user intefrace. Go to Projects > List > [Project Name] > General and verify the LFS Options section.
