+
+Perfect! I've successfully:
+
+1. ✅ **Set up the remote repository** to point to `R:\Creative\artsy\maya\2025-08-02 Springtrap Prince of Egypt`
+2. ✅ **Activated Git LFS** for handling large files
+3. ✅ **Configured Git LFS** to track common large file types including:
+   - Video files (`.mp4`, `.mov`, `.avi`, `.mkv`)
+   - 3D files (`.fbx`, `.blend`, `.obj`, `.dae`, `.abc`, `.bvh`)
+   - Image files (`.exr`, `.hdr`, `.png`, `.jpg`, `.tga`, `.tiff`)
+   - Archive files (`.zip`, `.rar`, `.7z`, `.tar`)
+   - And many other media formats
+
+Your Git LFS is now ready to handle large files like your video assets and FBX files efficiently. The `.gitattributes` file has been created and will ensure that large files are stored using Git LFS instead of being tracked directly in Git, which will keep your repository size manageable.
+
+You can now add and commit your files, and the large media files will automatically be handled by Git LFS!

+
+let's initialize the repo in the remote.

+
+_**Assistant**_
+
+I see the issue - the remote path you specified isn't a Git repository yet. Let me help you initialize a Git repository at that remote location.
+
+
+---
+
+```bash
+git init "R:\Creative\artsy\maya\2025-08-02 Springtrap Prince of Egypt"
+```
+
+```
+PS C:\Users\Nathan\Desktop\Springtrap_PrinceOfEgypt> git init "R:\Creative\artsy\maya\2025-08-02 Springtrap Prince of Egypt"
+Initialized empty Git repository in //hydra/hydra/Creative/artsy/maya/2025-08-02 Springtrap Prince of Egypt/.git/
+PS C:\Users\Nathan\Desktop\Springtrap_PrinceOfEgypt> 
+PS C:\Users\Nathan\Desktop\Springtrap_PrinceOfEgypt>

+
+Great! Now let me set up Git LFS in the remote repository as well:
