Can't seem to discard changes in Git

Question

After seeing the following from the command line:

# On branch RB_3.0.10
# Changed but not updated:
#   (use \"git add ...\" to update what will b         


        

Answer 1

For me this issue came up with a combination of downloading an Git-LFS image that was uploaded via Netlify CMS and served differently by their Netlify Large Media handler.

My solution was to comment out/remove these rows from my ~/.gitconfig so that they look like below, and then checking git status again.

# [filter "lfs"]
#   clean = git-lfs clean %f
#   smudge = git-lfs smudge %f
#   required = true

OR you can probably add a more local filter via a .gitconfig in the repo root and somehow overwrite the filter rules for lfs there.

Hope this helps a fellow out.
