Feature Description

Currently, when adopting repositories with lfs track files will not recover all lfs files automatically. But you could do that in repositories' setting page. It's better to finish the work automatically.

The only way to find lfs files is to crawl the entire git object database looking for sub 1K files that look like pointer files.

This is not a free action.

I'm not sure that this should happen by default for every repository.
