Git LFS Setup Instructions

What we’ve done:

• Created .gitattributes file to configure Git LFS for video files
• This tells Git to handle .mp4, .zip, .mov, .avi files with LFS

What you need to do on your local system:

1. Install Git LFS (if not already installed):

   # On macOS:
   brew install git-lfs
   
   # On Ubuntu/Debian:
   sudo apt install git-lfs
   
   # On Windows: Download from https://git-lfs.github.io/
   

2. Initialize Git LFS (one-time setup):

   git lfs install
   

3. Track the video file:

   git lfs track ai4mbse/demo.mp4
   

4. Commit and push:

   git add .gitattributes
   git add ai4mbse/demo.mp4
   git commit -m "Move demo.mp4 to Git LFS"
   git push
   

Benefits:

• ✅ Video stays in repository (no external links needed)
• ✅ No file size limits (GitHub LFS handles large files)
• ✅ Same quality - no compression needed
• ✅ Automatic handling for future video uploads

Note:

GitHub provides 1GB free LFS storage and 1GB/month bandwidth for free accounts. Your 108MB video fits easily within these limits.
