I uninstalled git
and all its dependencies
pacman -Rcns git
Then a system upgrade
pacman -Syu
I then installed git-lfs
which re-installed git
pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-git-lfs
https://packages.msys2.org/package/mingw-w64-x86_64-git-lfs?repo=mingw64
But I get
$ git status
git-lfs filter-process: line 1: git-lfs: command not found
fatal: the remote end hung up unexpectedly
Check which packages with git in name are installed:
$ pacman -Q | grep git
git 2.37.1-1
mingw-w64-x86_64-crt-git 10.0.0.r54.gb4116e310-1
mingw-w64-x86_64-git-lfs 3.2.0-1
mingw-w64-x86_64-headers-git 10.0.0.r54.gb4116e310-1
mingw-w64-x86_64-libwinpthread-git 10.0.0.r54.gb4116e310-1
mingw-w64-x86_64-winpthreads-git 10.0.0.r54.gb4116e310-1
QUESTION
Why won't git-lfs
install?
Here the steps
In addition to steps in question above,
Install git-lfs
$ /mingw64/bin/git-lfs install
Git LFS initialized.
Now problem is that mingw64/bin
is not in the path; I choose to copy git-lfs
to where git
is
cp /mingw64/bin/git-lfs /usr/bin/
Then do final step
$ git lfs install
Updated Git hooks.
Git LFS initialized.
