NAME

       git-lfs-dedup - Deduplicate Git LFS files

SYNOPSIS

       git lfs dedup

DESCRIPTION

       Deduplicates storage by re-creating working tree files as clones of the files in the Git
       LFS storage directory using the operating system’s copy-on-write file creation
       functionality.

       If the operating system or file system don’t support copy-on-write file creation, this
       command exits unsuccessfully.

       This command will also exit without success if any Git LFS extensions are configured, as
       these will typically be used to alter the file contents before they are written to the Git
       LFS storage directory, and therefore the working tree files should not be copy-on-write
       clones of the LFS object files.

       Part of the git-lfs(1) suite.
