Hello GitHub Support Team,

I am unable to push to my repository "udityamerit/CuraFind-Powered-By-AI" because I keep getting the error: "batch response: Git LFS is disabled for this repository."

I have already tried all the standard command-line troubleshooting steps multiple times, including:

• Running git lfs install
• Re-tracking the files with git lfs track
• Resetting my last commit and re-adding the files
• Using git rm --cached to re-index the files

None of these local solutions have worked, which suggests the issue might be on the server-side with my repository's LFS settings. I do not want to create a new repository.

Could you please investigate my repository "udityamerit/CuraFind-Powered-By-AI" and fix the LFS configuration from your end?

Thank you.

Hi @udityamerit,

The error message "batch response: Git LFS is disabled for this repository" indicates that Git Large File Storage (LFS) is not enabled on the repository itself, rather than a local Git problem. The steps you tried are correct for local troubleshooting, but the repository must have LFS enabled on the server side to accept LFS-tracked files.

Here’s what you can do:

Enable Git LFS on the Repository

Go to your repository on GitHub.

Navigate to Settings → Features → Git LFS (or search for “Git LFS” in Settings).

Ensure that LFS is enabled.

Check Repository Permissions

Make sure your user has write or admin access to enable LFS or push LFS-tracked files.

Retry the Push

After enabling LFS, re-run:

git lfs install
git lfs track "*.yourfileextension"
git add .gitattributes
git commit -m "Track files with LFS"
git push origin main

Contact GitHub Support if Needed

If LFS is enabled and you still cannot push, it could be a server-side configuration issue. Open a ticket with GitHub Support
and provide your repository link and error message.

This should resolve the issue without needing to create a new repository.
