# Git LFS Roadmap
|
|
|
|
This is a high level overview of some of the big changes we want to make for
|
|
Git LFS. If you have an idea for a new feature, open an issue for discussion.
|
|
|
|
## Releases
|
|
|
|
* 0.5 - Initial release using the [original HTTP API](docs/api/http-v1-original.md)
|
|
* 0.6 - First release using the [batch HTTP API](docs/api/http-v1-batch.md),
|
|
with a fallback to the original API.
|
|
* 0.7 - Drops support for the original API.
|
|
|
|
## v1.0
|
|
|
|
These are the features that we feel are important for a v1 release of Git LFS,
|
|
and we have a good idea how they could work.
|
|
|
|
* Fast, efficient uploading and downloading ([#414](https://github.com/github/git-lfs/issues/414)).
|
|
* Improved local storage management ([#490](https://github.com/github/git-lfs/issues/490)).
|
|
* [Extensions](docs/proposals/extensions.md) (#486).
|
|
* Improved installation/upgrade experience (#531).
|
|
* Ability to remove objects from the command line through the API.
|
|
* Go 1.5+
|
|
|
|
## Possible Features
|
|
|
|
These are features that require some more research. It's very possible that
|
|
these can make it in for v1.0 if there's a great proposal.
|
|
|
|
* File locking
|
|
* Binary diffing - reduce the amount of content sent over the wire.
|
|
* Client side metrics reporting, so the Git LFS server can optionally track
|
|
how clients are performing.
|
|
|
|
## Project Related
|
|
|
|
These are items that don't affect Git LFS end users.
|
|
|
|
* Releases through common package repositories: RPM, Apt, Chocolatey, Homebrew.
|
|
* CI builds for Windows.
|
|
* Automated build servers that build Git LFS on native platforms.
|
|
* Automated QA test suite for running release candidates through a gauntlet of
|
|
open source and proprietary Git LFS environments.
|
|
* Automatic updates of the Git LFS client.
