Galaxy Design uses Git LFS, an easy to setup and use tool for versioning design and large files. Follow the instructions in the link below to install & setup Git LFS in order to track files for contributing.
git lfs install
In order to use Git LFS and install it on each of the repositories that you'd like to use Git LFS, you first have to execute a global Homebrew or MacPorts install.
- Homebrew:
brew install git-lfs - MacPorts:
port install git-lfs

In order for Git LFS to manage files, we need to initialize tracking which will automatically create a .gitattributes file in the root of the repository. Let's initialize tracking by tracking the .psd file extension.
git lfs track "*.psd"
We could track each file one at a time by using the Git LFS tracking method above. But let's track all files by executing the following...
Open your .gitattributes file.
open .gitattributes
Copy the tracking list below, paste it into .gitattributes, save and close the file.
