No need to configure different backends\non the client.\n* HTTPS and SSH authentication is supported.\n* It's distributed as a static binary for Linux, Mac, and Windows, no\ncompilation or runtime needed.  The full source is provided with an\nMIT license, so you can also build it yourself with Go.\n\n - Homepage: https://git-lfs.github.com\n - Download: https://github.com/github/git-lfs/releases/tag/v0.5.0\n - Git URL: https://github.com/github/git-lfs\n - API Spec: https://github.com/github/git-lfs/blob/master/docs/api.md\n - Reference Server: https://github.com/github/lfs-test-server\n - Git Media: https://github.com/alebedev/git-media\n\n-- \nRick Olson\n"}]}
