How to use git lfs to push complete folder to github

Question

I have a project folder in my local having Deep learning models inside it. I want to push it to GitHub by creating new repository.

Here are the steps that I have taken:

Went to my GitHub account and created New Repo with name DeepL_models and only selected ReadMe and Private repository.

Then I cloned this repo using:

git clone ssh_link

After this step I went inside this cloned folder and dragged and dropped my model folder inside it:

The commands that I type after this are:

pc@LM-BGL-40510 Model % git remote
origin
pc@LM-BGL-40510 Model % git branch
* master

git lfs install
Updated git hooks.
Git LFS initialized.

git push -u origin master
Branch master set up to track remote branch master from origin.
Everything up-to-date

But why I am getting Everything up-to-date?

To track the complete folder model :

git lfs track *


git commit -m "Adding Model"  
git push origin master

I have installed git lfs but still getting this error. Also I have been asked password many times?

I faced the same issue like you. After I did follow this guide and original guide, the bug is fixed. Please remove large files in git add . and redo:

git reset --hard
git lfs install
git lfs track "*.psd"
git add .gitattributes
git add file.psd
git commit -m "Add design file"
git push origin main
