Research direction

Start by reviewing libgit2's current support for Git LFS and the resources available for implementing it. Check whether creating hooks is sufficient, then document the supported approach or clearly state the limitations and relevant resources.

Description

Hi,

I'm sorry if this seems like a common question, but I can't find any current answer to this. I am using libgit2 and would like to use Git LFS. I thought that creating the corresponding hooks would be enough, but that doesn't make it work

So in short:

  1. Is Git LFS supported?
  2. Are there any resources to implement it?

Thank you very much!
