Git LFS
Git LFS (Large File Storage) is an extension for Git that helps manage large files, like videos or high-resolution images, within software projects. Instead of storing these big files directly in the main Git repository, which can slow down performance, Git LFS replaces them with lightweight pointers. The actual large files are stored separately on a specialized server. When you clone or pull the project, Git LFS automatically retrieves the large files, making version control efficient without sacrificing access to important data.
