The git operations in my local machine seem extremely slow because of git lfs. Operations like the git checkout branch or git commit take a long time.
time gco SAP-1205
Updating files: 100% (8288/8288), done.
Switched to branch ‘SAP-1205’
git checkout SAP-1205 4.67s user 13.59s system 54% cpu 33.246 total
This happened because, during one of my project setups, I ran git lfs install, adding the following hooks that were extremely slowing down git operations.
- pre-push
- post-checkout
- post-commit
- post-merge
To fix this you can go do
git lfs uninstall
