## DESCRIPTION

Perform the following actions to ensure that Git LFS is setup properly:

  config.
* Install a pre-push hook to run git-lfs-pre-push(1) for the current repository,
  if run from inside one.

## OPTIONS

filters if they are not already set.

* `--force`:
    Sets the "lfs" smudge and clean filters, overwriting existing values.
