# git-lfs-fsck(1)

## NAME

git-lfs-fsck - Check GIT LFS files for consistency

## SYNOPSIS

    git lfs fsck [options] [revisions]

## DESCRIPTION

Checks all Git LFS files in the current HEAD for consistency.

Corrupted files are moved to ".git/lfs/bad".

The revisions may be specified as either a single committish, in which case only that commit is inspected; specified as a range of the form `A..B` (and only this form), in which case that range is inspected; or omitted entirely, in which case HEAD (and, for --objects, the index) is examined.

The default is to perform all checks.

In your Git configuration or in a `.lfsconfig` file, you may set `lfs.fetchexclude` to a comma-separated list of paths. If `lfs.fetchexclude` is defined, then any Git LFS files whose paths match one in that list will not be checked for consistency. Paths are matched using wildcard matching as per gitignore(5).

## OPTIONS

`--objects`

  Check that each object in HEAD matches its expected hash and that each object exists on disk.

`--pointers`

  Check that each pointer is canonical and that each file which should be stored as a Git LFS file is so stored.

`-d`
`--dry-run`

  Perform checks, but do not move any corrupted files to `.git/lfs/bad`.
