Git clone reports four files that should be Git LFS pointers
Cloning the repository with Git LFS installed produces:
Encountered 4 files that should have been pointers, but weren't:
timesfm-forecasting/examples/anomaly-detection/output/anomaly_detection.png timesfm-forecasting/examples/covariates-forecasting/output/covariates_data.png timesfm-forecasting/examples/global-temperature/output/forecast_animation.gif timesfm-forecasting/examples/global-temperature/output/forecast_visualization.png
The repository's .gitattributes specifies that PNG and GIF files under timesfm-forecasting/ should be managed through Git LFS:
timesfm-forecasting//*.png filter=lfs diff=lfs merge=lfs -text timesfm-forecasting//*.gif filter=lfs diff=lfs merge=lfs -text
The clone completes successfully, so this appears to be a repository/LFS consistency issue rather than a functional TimesFM problem.
It looks as though these four generated output files may have been committed as regular Git blobs rather than LFS pointer objects.
Re-adding the affected files through Git LFS should remove the warning for future checkouts.
