  • alanedwardes/Estranged.Lfs - a C#.net implementation using AWS Lambda, API Gateway and S3.
  • alt361/Installation-GitLFS - a way to simply integrate Git-LFS in a Ubuntu database
  • Anchor LFS - A GoLang implementation, authenticates using GitHub, supports S3 and file locking
  • artemkin/git-lfs-server - Git LFS server with PAM authentication
  • autovia/git-lfs-transfer - Server-side implementation using the SSH protocol
  • bozaro/git-as-svn - subversion frontend for git repositories with embedded Git LFS server
  • bozaro/git-lfs-java - Git LFS Java library (client, server, pointer manipulation)
  • cbartz/git-lfs-swift-server - Stores files in an OpenStack Swift cluster
  • cbartz/git-lfs-swift-transfer-agent - Implements the custom transfer type swift, which is capable of handling large objects (which exceed the default maximum single object size)
  • charmbracelet/soft-serve - Self-hostable Git server with both HTTP and pure-SSH Git LFS implementations
  • charmbracelet/git-lfs-transfer - Server-side implementation of the Git LFS pure-SSH protocol
  • cloudmazing/lfs-server-go - S3/local file support, Cassandra/redis/boltdb metadata store
  • datopian/giftless - A modern standalone pluggable Git LFS server implemented in Python 3.x supporting the latest protocols. Pluggable backends with existing support for local, Azure, S3 and Google Cloud backends. Pluggable JWT based authentication / authorization mechanism. Also includes multipart support (extension to LFS protocol).
  • FerrLabs/LFSX - A Git LFS server in Rust that deduplicates objects across repositories (each object is stored once, however many repositories share it), compresses and optionally encrypts objects at rest, and serves resumable ranged downloads from local or S3-compatible storage. Supports file locking, and delegates permissions to GitHub, GitLab, Gitea or Forgejo. Ships as a static binary, Docker image and Helm chart.
  • git-lfs-fuse - Mount Git LFS repositories as local Filesystem in Userspace (FUSE) directories.
  • Gitblit - Open-source pure Java Git solution with embedded Git-LFS support
  • GitBucket - Open-source Git platform powered by Scala with GitLFS support on the local file system
  • Gitea - Open-source Git platform powered by Go with Git LFS support
  • GitLab - Has LFS support in the GitLab.com, GitLab Community Edition, and GitLab Enterprise Edition
  • github/lfs-test-server - reference server implementation
  • gitlit - A gui for Git LFS file locks
  • jasonwhite/rudolfs - An encrypting, caching, Git LFS server with an S3 back-end (Rust).

  • msangals/git-lfs-s3-proxy - A Git LFS Server that implements the Batch API and uses AWS S3 Bucket as storage.
  • OneDev - All-in-One DevOps server with Git management, issue boards, and CI/CD. Supports Git LFS starting from 5.0.
  • PickySalamander/git-lfs-aws - A serverless Git LFS server that runs on AWS Lambda.
  • nicolas-graves/lfs-s3 - a Custom Transfer Agent for Git LFS which sends LFS files to an AWS S3 bucket.
  • saracen/lfscache - a Git LFS Caching proxy, for putting in-between multiple clients (users, build servers) and your LFS server.
  • SCM-Manager - Easy-to-install server to host Git, Mercurial and SVN repositories. Supports Git LFS out of the box.
  • scutiger-lfs - Rust crate with Git LFS utilities including a server-side implementation of the Git LFS pure-SSH protocol
