46## 3.0.0 (24 Sep 2021)
47
48This release is a major new release and introduces several new features, such as
49a pure SSH-based protocol, packages for several new OS versions, support for
50ARM64 Windows, Git-compatible pattern matching, and locking multiple files on
51the command line, among other items.
52
53When connecting over SSH, the first attempt will be made to use
54`git-lfs-transfer`, the pure SSH protocol, and if it fails, Git LFS will fall
55back to the hybrid protocol using `git-lfs-authenticate`.  Note that no major
56forges are known to support the pure SSH protocol at this time.
57
58Because it is a major release, we've made some backwards-incompatible changes.
59A (possibly incomplete) list of them is as follows:
60
61* NTLM support has been completely removed, since nobody volunteered to fix
62  issues in it.  Users are advised to use Kerberos or Basic authentication
63  instead.
64* When using an SSH URL (that is, the syntax starting with `ssh://`), the
65  leading slash is not stripped off when invoking `git-lfs-authenticate` or
66  `git-lfs-transfer`.  This is compatible with the behavior of Git when invoking
67  commands over SSH.
68* `git lfs fsck` now additionally checks that pointers are canonical and that
69  files that are supposed to be LFS files actually are.  It also exits nonzero
70  if any problem is found.
71* Pattern matching should be stricter and should either match the behavior of
72  `.gitattributes` or `.gitignore`, as appropriate.  Deviations from Git's
73  behavior will henceforth be treated as bugs and fixed accordingly.
74* Git LFS will now write a Git LFS repository format version into the
75  repository.  This is designed to allow future extension with incompatible
76  changes.  Repositories without this version will be assumed to be version 0.
77  Note that this is different from, but modeled on, Git's repository format
78  version.
79* `git lfs lock` and `git lfs unlock` now handle multiple pathname arguments and
80  the JSON format has changed to handle multiple responses.
81* The Go package name now contains a version number.  This should have no effect
82  on users because we don't provide a stable Go ABI.
83* Empty components in `PATH` are no longer treated as the current directory on
84  Windows because unintentionally having such empty components is common and the
85  behavior was surprising.

182
183This release fixes two bugs that caused `git lfs prune` to hang, updates some
184dependencies to versions which lack a security issue (which did not affect Git
185LFS), and adds support for ARM64 builds on macOS.

197## 2.13.2 (13 Jan 2021)
198
199This release introduces a security fix for Windows systems, which has been
200assigned CVE-2021-21237.
201
202On Windows, if Git LFS operates on a malicious repository with a git.bat or
203git.exe file in the current directory, that program is executed, permitting the
204attacker to execute arbitrary code.  This security problem does not affect Unix
205systems.  This is the same issue as CVE-2020-27955, but the fix for that issue
206was incomplete and certain options can still cause the problem to occur.
207
208This occurs because on Windows, Go includes (and prefers) the current directory
209when the name of a command run does not contain a directory separator.  This has
210been solved by always using PATH to pre-resolve paths before handing them to Go.
211
212We would like to extend a special thanks to the following open-source
213contributors:
214
215* @Ry0taK for reporting this to us responsibly

219* Use subprocess for invoking all commands (@bk2204)
220
221## 2.13.1 (11 Dec 2020)
222
223This release fixes a bug in our build tooling that prevents our release process
224from working properly.  This release is otherwise identical to 2.13.0.
225
226### Misc
227
228* Makefile: don't fail the second time macOS builds are built #4341 (@bk2204)
229
230## 2.13.0 (10 Dec 2020)
231
232This release introduces several new features, such as the `--above` option to
233`git lfs migrate import` and support for `socks5h` proxies.  In addition, many
234bugs have been fixed and several miscellaneous fixes have been included.
235
236Unless someone steps up to fix and maintain NTLM support, this will be the last
237Git LFS release to support NTLM.  See #4247 for more details.  Note that Git LFS
238supports Kerberos as well, which is far more secure and may be a viable
239replacement in many situations.

241We would like to extend a special thanks to the following open-source
242contributors:
243

300## 2.12.0 (1 Sep 2020)
301
302This release introduces several new features, such as support for the SHA-256
303repositories coming in a future version of Git, restored support for Go 1.11,
304the ability to read the contents of .lfsconfig from the repository, signed and
305notarized binaries on macOS, and pre-built 32-bit ARM binaries on Linux.  In
306addition, several bugs have been fixed and miscellaneous fixes included.
307
308Note that macOS releases are now shipped as zip files, not tarballs, since it is
309not possible to notarize tarballs.  macOS releases are now also built on macOS,
310so `git lfs dedup` should now function.

932
933### Bugs
934

937
938## 2.4.1 (18 May, 2018)
939
940This release fixes a handful of bugs found and fixed since v2.4.0. In
941particular, Git LFS no longer panic()'s after invalid API responses, can
942correctly run 'fetch' on SHAs instead of references, migrates symbolic links
943correctly, and avoids writing to `$HOME/.gitconfig` more than is necessary.
944
945We would like to extend a "thank you" to the following contributors for their
946gracious patches:
947
948- @QuLogic fixed an issue with running tests that require credentials
949- @patrickmarlier made it possible for 'git lfs migrate import' to work
950  correctly with symbolic links.
951- @zackse fixed an inconsistency in `CONTRIBUTING.md`
952- @zanglang fixed an inconsistency in `README.md`
953
954Git LFS would not be possible without generous contributions from the
955open-source community. For these, and many more: thank you!

989## 2.4.0 (2 March, 2018)
990
991This release introduces a rewrite of the underlying file matching engine,
992expands the API to include relevant refspecs for individual requests,
993standardizes the progress output among commands, and more.
994
995Please note: in the next MAJOR release (v3.0.0) the semantic meaning behind
996`--include` and `--exclude` flags will change. As the details of exactly which
997existing patterns will no longer function as previously are known, we will
998indicate them here. Any `--include` or `--exclude` patterns used in v2.3.0 or
999earlier are expected to work as previously in this release.
1000
1001This release would not be possible without the open-source community.
1002Specifically, we would like to thank:
1003
1004- @larsxschneider: for contributing fixes to the filter operation in `git lfs
1005  fsck`, and `git lfs prune`, as well as the bug report leading to the
1006  filepathfilter changes.
1007- @yfronto: for adding new Linux release targets.
1008- @stffabi: for adding support for NTLM with SSPI on Windows.
1009- @jeffreydwalter: for fixing memory alignment issues with `sync/atomic` on
1010  32-bit architectures.
1011- @b4mboo: for adding a LFS configuration key to the list of safe configuration
1012  options.
1013
1014Without the aforementioned indviduals, this release would not have been
1015possible. Thank you!

1171## 2.3.0 (14 September, 2017)
1172
1173Git LFS v2.3.0 includes performance optimizations for the `git-lfs-migrate(1)`
1174and `git-clone(1)` commands, new features, bug-fixes, and more.
1175
1176This release was made possible by contributors to Git LFS. Specifically:
1177
1178- @aleb: added support for "standalone" transfer agents, for using `rsync(1)`
1179  and similar with Git LFS.
1180- @bozaro: added support for custom `.git/lfs/objects` directories via the
1181  `lfs.storage` configuration option.
1182- @larsxschneider: fixed a recursive process leak when shelling out to Git,
1183  added new features to `git lfs ls-files`, extra information in error
1184  messages used for debugging, documentation changes and more.
1185- @mathstuf: contributed a documentation change clarifying LFS's handling of
1186  empty pointer files.
1187- @rudineirk and @andyneff: updated our release process to build packages for
1188  fedora/26.
1189- @ssgelm: ensured that LFS is able to be released on Ubuntu Universe.
1190
1191To everyone who has contributed to this or previous releases of Git LFS: Thank
1192you!

1276## 2.2.0 (27 June, 2017)
1277
1278Git LFS v2.2.0 includes bug fixes, minor features, and a brand new `migrate`
1279command. The `migrate` command rewrites commits, converting large files from
1280Git blobs to LFS objects. The most common use case will fix a git push rejected
1281for having large blobs:
1282
1283```
1284$ git push origin master
1285# ...
1286remote: error: file a.psd is 1.2 gb; this exceeds github's file size limit of 100.00 mb
1287to github.com:ttaylorr/demo.git
1288 ! [remote rejected] master -> master (pre-receive hook declined)
1289error: failed to push some refs to 'git@github.com:ttaylorr/demo.git'
1290
1291$ git lfs migrate info
1292*.psd   1.2 GB   27/27 files(s)  100%
1293
1294$ git lfs migrate import --include="*.psd"
1295migrate: Sorting commits: ..., done
1296migrate: Rewriting commits: 100% (810/810), done
1297  master        f18bb746d44e8ea5065fc779bb1acdf3cdae7ed8 -> 35b0fe0a7bf3ae6952ec9584895a7fb6ebcd498b
1298migrate: Updating refs: ..., done
1299
1300$ git push origin
1301Git LFS: (1 of 1 files) 1.2 GB / 1.2 GB
1302# ...
1303To github.com:ttaylorr/demo.git
1304 * [new branch]      master -> master
1305```
1306
1307The `migrate` command has detailed options described in the `git-lfs-migrate(1)`
1308man page. Keep in mind that this is the first pass at such a command, so we
1309expect there to be bugs and performance issues (especially on long git histories).
1310Future updates to the command will be focused on improvements to allow full
1311LFS transitions on large repositories.

1340## 2.1.1 (19 May, 2017)
1341
1342Git LFS v2.1.1 ships with bug fixes and a security patch fixing a remote code
1343execution vulnerability exploitable by setting a SSH remote via your
1344repository's `.lfsconfig` to contain the string "-oProxyCommand". This
1345vulnerability is only exploitable if an attacker has write access to your
1346repository, or you clone a repository with a `.lfsconfig` file containing that
1347string.

1437## 2.0.0 (1 March, 2017)
1438
1439Git LFS v2.0.0 brings a number of important bug fixes, some new features, and
1440a lot of internal refactoring. It also completely removes old APIs that were
1441deprecated in Git LFS v0.6.
1442
1443### Locking
1444
1445File Locking is a brand new feature that lets teams communicate when they are
1446working on files that are difficult to merge. Users are not able to edit or push
1447changes to any files that are locked by other users. While the feature has been
1448in discussion for a year, we are releasing a basic Locking implementation to
1449solicit feedback from the community.
1450
1451### Transfer Queue
1452
1453LFS 2.0 introduces a new Git Scanner, which walks a range of Git commits looking
1454for LFS objects to transfer. The Git Scanner is now asynchronous, initiating
1455large uploads or downloads in the Transfer Queue immediately once an LFS object
1456is found. Previously, the Transfer Queue waited until all of the Git commits
1457have been scanned before initiating the transfer. The Transfer Queue also
1458automatically retries failed uploads and downloads more often.
1459
1460### Deprecations
1461
1462Git LFS v2.0.0 also drops support for the legacy API in v0.5.0. If you're still
1463using LFS servers on the old API, you'll have to stick to v1.5.6.

1621## 1.4.2 (10 October, 2016)
1622
1623v1.4.2 brings a number of bug fixes and usability improvements to LFS. This
1624release also adds support for multiple retries within the transfer queue, making
1625transfers much more reliable. To enable this feature, see the documentation for
1626`lfs.transfer.maxretries` in `git-lfs-config(5)`.
1627
1628We'd also like to extend a special thank-you to @sschuberth who undertook the
1629process of making LFS's test run on Windows through AppVeyor. Now all pull
1630requests run tests on macOS, Linux, and Windows.
