LFS 移行
Git LFS data and objects are not migrated using the Data Center Migration tool, and/or cloned or re-pushed manually.
LFS enabled is a per-repository setting. This means that after the import if you have it enabled on the source, LFS enabled will be enabled on the target.

The LFS migration process requires read access to all affected repositories on the source instance, and write access to the same repositories, on the target instance.
Preparing the export
Export outputs generated when using Data Center Management do not contain LFS objects.
This process is required for LFS objects only.
Clones can be done before, during or after the export. If you discard the source after exporting, your export archive does not contain the LFS objects. These exist only in the source or in clones that you've made separately.
To prepare for migrating LFS objects you will need Git LFS installed on the client. Refer to Git Large File Storage for the process if you are unsure.
1. Clone the relevant repositories that include the LFS objects you want to migrate:
- For each Git LFS enabled repository, a clone has to be created on a machine that can access both the source and target instance of a migration.
- Otherwise, clone from the source instance first, and transfer the clone later.
- You may have existing clones as part of your development workflow that you can use. If you can't or don't want to rely on existing clones, it's best to create dedicated clones for the migration process.
To migrate the full history of LFS objects, you need full clones: use git clone $source_repo_url
for each LFS-enabled repository.
If a recent history will be sufficient, you can use a shallow clone: git clone $source_repo_url --depth 1
or similar, for each LFS-enabled repository.
2. Run git lfs fetch --all
on each individual clone to retrieve the LFS objects.
Exporting LFS objects/data
You can find the full export process here if needed.
1. Export relevant repositories using the existing data center migration process.
2. Maintain respective clones with LFS objects separately, as described above.
Importing LFS objects/data
Separate clones are created prior to export, as only the setting that enables LFC will be restored, not the objects.
1. Import relevant repositories using the existing data center import process.
These repositories will have LFS enabled as when they were exported.
2. Once the import is completed, add the new origin to each of your clones: git remote add $target_instance_name $target_repo_url
3. To complete the process, push LFS objects: git lfs push --all $target_instance_name
