porting project with large files (git-lfs) from github

[Robert]

Hi, I'm porting something hosted on github using GH_... options in 
Makefile.

FreeBSD tries to fetch a tar.gz archive from https://codeload.github.com 
and within such archive there are "large files" which contain something 
like:

version https://git-lfs.github.com/spec/v1
oid sha256:e8f293258e38e9689cb87ffbb91c3de2c339a6c074c77115ca86d50b5a48bc64
size 20413048

instead of a real data, so build fails.

What's the best way to resolve this issue?

Thanks.
