Issue
I am running Eclipse 2019-06 (4.12.0) in my Windows 8.1 x64 PC. I have downloaded Git 2.28.0 portable package and included the location till bin
in the PATH
environment variable. When I type git in cmd, it is working fine. Also, I have downloaded git lfs package, and copied it to the same bin folder of Git. I initialized it and my global .gitconfig
now looks like below;
[filter "lfs"]
required = true
clean = git-lfs clean -- %f
smudge = git-lfs smudge -- %f
process = git-lfs filter-process
I have checked LFS support in my local repository, and found that its working fine. But, When I open eclipse and go to Git configuration (Window > Preferences > Team > Git), it is showing that LFS is not enabled / active. Below is the screenshot;
I would like to activate this feature. How can I do this?
Solution
You have to install JGit's LFS support:
In Help > Install New Software... work with http://download.eclipse.org/egit/updates
and install Java implementation of Git - optional LFS support.
