We have a lot of binaries, mostly 3rd party libraries, which are not ideal for storage in Git. That's why I tried to use Git LFS (Large File Storage), but it was a total failure.
The git lfs migrate command did not work, and when trying to add only one subdirectory to a new repo it doubled in size.
I wonder if anyone got this working on Git for Windows, not talking about the whole repo but a subdirectory like this:
git lfs migrate import --include="common/**"

"Did not work" is hardly specific enough.

Welcome to development, many more unexpected "challenges" will come your way 
And I could not not. There's always something.

Does that mean that you got Git LFS working on a subdirectory?

My poor cats. My husband just got chicks with the nefarious intention of raising them and stealing their eggs.
One cat is terrified of them, and the other one (who happens to be allergic to chicken) is trying to figure out why we won't share them with him.
I made him clean out the carport in exchange for putting up with having what I firmly believe are farm animals in our backyard. And they're loud little things.
They came from an outfit called "Payback Poultry". Initially I assumed it had to do with the karmic justice around them formerly being vicious giant lizards in their past lives, and are now kept as pets and farmed for eggs, but apparently it's not. I guess the idea is the eggs pay for the chickens. How .. mundane.
Anyway, I guess I'll have to learn to love quiche.

If it were up to the chickens they'd be pets in the house.
My parents have two chickens and they're very social and love to be around them.
They'll even sit on your lap when you're sitting outside
They're also surprisingly soft to the touch.
I guess it all depends on the breed though.

They're loud and they smell funny. They belong on a farm, IMO. Hisself disagrees.

Take comfort in the fact that these chickens will probably live a better life in your backyard than they otherwise might.

I got 4 chickens late last year (and another stray one turned up!). I am not in favour of caging birds, but if you have them, then it is for their safety. I treat mine as pets (aka family) that happen to lay eggs; which is just as well as creating a good environment for them, and feeding them with good food (plus treat) means that they are far more expensive to keep that just buying eggs in the supermarket. Faberge eggs would be cheaper. But, they are great fun to have around, they show a lot of intelligence and social skills (not all positive ones).

"Stealing"? If you talk regular chickens, they're domesticated and can't survive in the wild. They're existence is a symbiosis with ours.
Now, to the gruesome part; dunno the exact translation, but are they "beaked" or not? You can tell if theyre beak is cut, and if not, then don't come near with a finger. They also need to have their feathers cut. Ask your vet, as a developer you trained to find facts and not trust opinions.

I owned both, never at the same time. Keep them separated. Especially if one of the "chicks" is male. It will defend his hens against intruders. Some co.. ehr.. roosters are fiercely about their territory.
honey the codewitch wrote: I guess the idea is the eggs pay for the chickens. How .. mundane.
Nah, the idea is to have better eggs than the supermarket. Those eggs will be more expensive if you count the cost of living, those from the supermarket are WAY more cheap.
..but some people say they taste better. Like in the cola-ads, I choose the wrong one and taste no difference at all and pick the cheap one as the best. But then, an egg from a chicken in happyness, compared to our European chicken farms.. well, that worth something. Just not worth enough for Goedzo to share the small garden with some large aggressive birds.

Chickens provide a lot of politicians. Ehr.. What's the nice word? ..manure. And your hubby will grow tired soon from the cleaning. They also need protection from rats which will be attracted by the chicken food.
I love chickens, love to eat chicken; and they exist, because we exist. If we stop existing, in a few hundred years chickens stop existing too. Domesticated chickens exist because we have a need for them, called KFC.
And as long there's KFC, there'll be chickens and they never will go extintinct.

I can't see the difference, sorry. I just responded literally, as that seemed appropriate. Valid as those points are, sounds like I missed the point?

"Fisk" you? That's Norwegian for fish. Your statement makes no sense in translation.

Yes, I can see the pattern now  Nvm, the fault is mine.

I suppose. I wasn't being serious. Well except for that "Payback Poultry" is in fact named after the premise that the chickens pay for themselves by way of their eggs, however inaccurate that might be. I didn't name the company.
Sorry, "fisk" is an american internet slang term for doing a line by line rebuttal of someone's statement or position.

Has he set up a chicken tractor? Cuts out some of the feed cost / cleanup time from the equation.
Of course some people do let the birds run, and in surprisingly urban places.

The chickens in your garden are likely to be healthier than battery chickens, and therefore lay healthier eggs. They certainly will be fresher than the supermarket variety!

I'd doubt that; they're not getting antibiotics on a regular basis.

I don't taste any difference. Most of us won't, in a blind taste test.

And they (mostly) don't need them. Battery chicken farms, with their overcrowding and poor sanitary conditions, are the worst possible way to raise chickens; their only advantage is cost. The chickens are fed antibiotics in order to prevent them becoming ill under those conditions.
I understand that some antibiotics also make animals & birds reach their best weight faster, so they can be slaughtered earlier. IIRC, the EU has banned the use of antibiotics for this purpose, but the US still allows it.
