gimme blender project gitignore and activate git lfs

_**Assistant**_

I'll help you create a `.gitignore` file for your Blender project and set up Git LFS. Let me first check the current directory structure and then create the appropriate files.


---

<details>
            <summary>Listed current directory • **6** results</summary>
        
| Name |
|-------|
| 📁 `.git` |
| 📁 `.specstory` |
| 📄 `.cursorindexingignore` |
| 📁 `assets` |
| 📁 `Pr` |
| 📁 `blends` |

</details>

---

Now I'll create a comprehensive `.gitignore` file for Blender projects and set up Git LFS for handling large files like video assets.

I already finished the gitignore and everything. set remote repository to R:\Creative\artsy\maya\2025-08-02 Springtrap Prince of Egypt

---

_**Assistant**_

I'll help you set up the remote repository to point to your specified path. Let me configure the Git remote for you.


---

```bash
git remote add origin "R:\Creative\artsy\maya\2025-08-02 Springtrap Prince of Egypt"
```

```
PS C:\Users\Nathan\Desktop\Springtrap_PrinceOfEgypt> git remote add origin "R:\C
reative\artsy\maya\2025-08-0
2 Springtrap Prince of Egypt"
                            

```

---

Now let me verify the remote was added correctly and then set up Git LFS for handling large files like your video assets and FBX files:


---

```bash
git remote -v
```

```
PS C:\Users\Nathan\Desktop\Springtrap_PrinceOfEgypt> git remote -v
origin  R:\Creative\artsy\maya\2025-08-02 Springtrap Prince of Egypt (fetch)
origin  R:\Creative\artsy\maya\2025-08-02 Springtrap Prince of Egypt (push)
PS C:\Users\Nathan\Desktop\Springtrap_PrinceOfEgypt>
```

---

Perfect! Now let me set up Git LFS to handle your large files:


---

```bash
git lfs install
```

```
Git LFS initialized.
PS C:\Users\Nathan\Desktop\Springtrap_PrinceOfEgypt>
PS C:\Users\Nathan\Desktop\Springtrap_PrinceOfEgypt>
```

---

Now let me configure Git LFS to track common large file types used in Blender projects:


---

```bash
git lfs track "*.mp4" "*.mov" "*.avi" "*.mkv" "*.fbx" "*.blend" "*.blend1" "*.blend2" "*.obj" "*.dae" "*.3ds" "*.max" "*.c4d" "*.ma" "*.mb" "*.abc" "*.bvh" "*.bvh.gz" "*.h5" "*.hdf5" "*.exr" "*.hdr" "*.tga" "*.tiff" "*.tif" "*.png" "*.jpg" "*.jpeg" "*.bmp" "*.psd" "*.ai" "*.eps" "*.pdf" "*.zip" "*.rar" "*.7z" "*.tar" "*.gz" "*.bz2"
```

```
PS C:\Users\Nathan\Desktop\Springtrap_PrinceOfEgypt> git lfs track "*.mp4" "*.mov" "*.avi" "*.mkv" "*.fbx" "*.blend" "*.blend1" "*.blend2" "*.obj" "*.dae" "*.3ds" "*.max" "*.c4
d" "*.ma" "*.mb" "*.abc" "*.bvh" "*.bvh.gz" "*.h5" "*.hdf5" "*.exr" "*.hdr" "*.tga" "*.tiff" "*.tif" "*.png" "*.jpg" "*.jpeg" "*.bmp" "*.psd" "*.ai" "*.eps" "*.pdf" "*.zip" "*.

Tracking "*.mov"
Tracking "*.avi"
Tracking "*.mkv"
Tracking "*.fbx"
"*.blend" already supported
Tracking "*.blend1"
Tracking "*.blend2"

Tracking "*.dae"
Tracking "*.3ds"
Tracking "*.max"
Tracking "*.c4d"
Tracking "*.ma"
Tracking "*.mb"
Tracking "*.abc"

Tracking "*.gz"
Tracking "*.bz2"
PS C:\Users\Nathan\Desktop\Springtrap_PrinceOfEgypt> 
PS C:\Users\Nathan\Desktop\Springtrap_PrinceOfEgypt>
```

---

Great! Now let me add the `.gitattributes` file that was created and commit the Git LFS configuration:


---

```bash
git add .gitattributes
```

```
PS C:\Users\Nathan\Desktop\Springtrap_PrinceOfEgypt> git add .gitattributes                                                                                                     
PS C:\Users\Nathan\Desktop\Springtrap_PrinceOfEgypt>
```
