As for me, a proper temporary workaround is

```auto
git config --add lfs.url "https://huggingface.co/NickKolok/repo_name.git/info/lfs"

```

Taken here: [Files get skipped, repository or object not found. · Issue #1151 · git-lfs/git-lfs · GitHub](https://github.com/git-lfs/git-lfs/issues/1151#issuecomment-212589081)

Still looks like git-lfs is a scam.
