title: Git lfs - "this exceeds GitHub's file size limit of 100.00 MB"
body: <p>I have some csv files that are larger than github's file size limit of 100.00 MB. I have been trying to use the Git Large File Storage extension.</p>
  
  <p><a href="https://git-lfs.github.com/" rel="noreferrer">https://git-lfs.github.com/</a></p>
  
  <p>From LFS - <code>"Large file versioning- Version large files—even those as large as a couple GB in size—with Git."</code></p>
  
  <p>I have applied the following on the folders of concern:</p>
  
  <pre><code>git lfs track "*.csv"
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>However, when I push:</p>
  
  <pre><code>remote: error: File Time-Delay-ftn/Raw-count-data-minor-roads1.csv is 445.93 MB; this exceeds GitHub's file size limit of 100.00 MB
  remote: error: File Time-Delay-ftn/Raw-count-data-major-roads.csv is 295.42 MB; this exceeds GitHub's file size limit of 100.00 MB
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>When I look at the folder in question:</p>
  
  <pre><code>-rw-r-----   1 user  staff    42B 23 Oct 12:34 .gitattributes
  -rw-r--r--   1 user  staff   1.3K 19 Oct 14:32 DfT_raw_major_manipulation.py
  -rw-r--r--   1 user  staff   1.2K 16 Oct 15:08 DfT_raw_minor_manipulation.py
  drwxr-xr-x  21 user  staff   714B 22 Oct 11:35 Driving/
  -rwxr-xr-x@  1 user  staff   295M 19 Oct 14:47 Raw-count-data-major-roads1.csv*
  -rwxr-xr-x@  1 user  staff   446M 16 Oct 14:52 Raw-count-data-minor-roads1.csv*
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>when I vim the .gitattributes file you can see the lfs setup:</p>
  
  <pre><code>*.csv filter=lfs diff=lfs merge=lfs -text
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>What am I doing wrong?</p>
  
  <p>UPDATE</p>
  
  <p>When I query </p>
  
  <pre><code>git lfs ls-files
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I get nothing returned. This indicates that despite the .csv filter being successfully applied to the .gitattributes file the csv files are not being picked up by lfs</p>
