Hello! It sounds like you are also dealing with a file format issue in Git LFS. I actually had a similar problem myself where I needed to include several different file formats, such as .mp4, .jpeg and .pdf files, in my repository. To do this, I modified the .gitattributes file in my repository and added the following lines: *.mp4 filter=lfs diff=lfs merge=lfs -text *.jpeg filter=lfs diff=lfs merge=lfs -text *.pdf filter=lfs diff=lfs merge=lfs -text This tells Git LFS to track all .mp4, .jpeg and .pdf files in my repository using LFS. Just to complement, I think this also works when you do not have a file format: /Assets/OpenCVForUnity/Plugins/macOS/opencvforunity.bundle/* filter=lfs diff=lfs merge=lfs -text /Assets/OpenCVForUnity/Plugins/iOS/opencv2.framework/opencv2 filter=lfs diff=lfs merge=lfs -text I hope this helps! Please, let me know if this works. |

Thanks for your feedback. So, I asked a friend of mine and maybe you try using, for example: /Assets/OpenCVForUnity/Plugins/macOS/opencvforunity.bundle/** filter=lfs Apparently, it will copy all files and directories within... |

Didn't work as well. I thought maybe the path is incorrect; my .gitattribute file is in the Asset folder. |

Yes, you are correct. The .gitattributes file should be placed in the project root directory and not in the Asset folder. Additionally, you should check if there is already a .gitignore file in your project and make sure it does not ignore any necessary files. Let me know if it works... |

Even when it's in the right location it doesn't work. What could be the other reasons for that not working? (it does track other file formats as mentioned) |

I see that you have already looked into potential issues, but it's worth double-checking. Could it be that an older version of Git LFS is installed on your system which may not support tracking certain file types like the opencv2 directories? Another possibility, could it be a permission issue where you do not have sufficient permissions to read the directories? Please let me know if these were checked. Anyway, I will also continue to search for any other possible solutions and get back to you if I find anything helpful. It could be good to solve and also help others with the same issue. |

Question
I'm trying to add some large files (~416 MB) to git LFS but I don't know how to include the following files:
"/Assets/OpenCVForUnity/Plugins/macOS/opencvforunity.bundle"
"/Assets/OpenCVForUnity/Plugins/iOS/opencv2.framework/opencv2"
The bundle file consists of different files, and the opencv2 file doesn't have a format type.
I'm using Mac M1 and I've followed multiple tutorials in order to track specific files by path, but it didn't seem to work.
How would you suggest solving this issue?
