How do you handle large binary files in Git?

Large binary files (like images, videos, or data models) bloat Git repositories since Git

stores every version.

To handle them efficiently, I use Git LFS (Large File Storage).

Setup:

git lfs install

git lfs track "*.psd"

git add .gitattributes

git commit -m "Track Photoshop files with Git LFS"

Explanation:

Git LFS replaces large files with lightweight text pointers inside Git, while the actual binary

files are stored on a separate LFS server.

Example:

If a game project has large texture files, Git LFS prevents the repo from becoming gigabytes

in size, improving clone and fetch performance.
