default-lfs-tracks.md

Why

Just a place to store default Git LFS tracking types.

bash version below.

default-lfs-tracks.sh

#!/bin/bash

# Makes Git use LFS for potentially huge python-related stuff
git lfs track \
  '*.pkl' \
  '*.npz'

# Same for binary image types 
git lfs track \
  '*.png' \
  '*.jpeg' \
  '*.jpg' \
  '*.bmp' \
  '*.svg' \
  '*.sketch'

# And again for office-related binaries
git lfs track \
  '*.ppt' \
  '*.pptx' \
  '*.doc' \
  '*.docx' \
  '*.xls' \
  '*.xlsx' \
  '*.odt' \
  '*.odf' \
  '*.odp' \
  '*.docx' \
  '*.xls' \
  '*.xlsx'

It lists docx, xls and xlsx files twice, if I'm not mistaken.

oh wow. yes 😆

Thanks!
