I really like the idea of compressing objects in `.git/lfs`, if they're a format where compression makes sense. Compression for the transfers also makes good sense. For server storage, though,...

@mkulagowski Did you add a user to the lfs server? Since it's just a little stand alone test thing it uses its own user database, separate from anything else on...

@mkulagowski Hmm, it looks like for the PUT it was trying to connect to `127.0.0.1` instead of your vps host. When the client makes the `POST`, the server will hand...

LFS_CONTENTPATH is only telling the lfs-test-server where to store the uploaded content. You could stick it anywhere on your file system. The path part of the url in the config...

Can you paste the output of `git lfs env` from your repo?

We can make the test server work without authentication, but the client side doesn't support that very well just yet. We'll need to modify the client to only ask for...
