How to migrate from Git-Annex to Git LFS

Question

How can I migrate a repository in which I'm managing large files with Git-annex to manage them with Git LFS?

Which commands should I run to disable annex and enable LFS?

Answer 1

After struggling a little bit, I've found the answer for this equation!

We need to change annex mode to direct first, then git annex uninit, then change the mode back to indirect, then add, commit and push.

$ git annex direct
$ git annex uninit
$ git annex indirect
# add, commit and push
# track with LFS (per file, extension, or folder)
$ git lfs track images/*

I'm working on a migration guide that will be available soon (I'll link it here).
