Please advise. The `filter.lfs` configuration is set by Git LFS [1] in order to correctly filter large files into your working copy. You can safely ignore these, or remove them if you are not using Git LFS. > What is the best way to upgrade to a newer stable version of git? On macOS, you can use Homebrew [2] to install any version of Git. Install the latest via: brew update && brew install git Thanks, Taylor [1]: https://git-lfs.github.com [2]: https://brew.sh
