Hi,

I am unable to use Git LFS on an organization repo. I get an error "batch response: Git LFS is disabled for this repository" when I try to push the code to the remote branch. Could you help me resolve this issue?

Organization repo link: https://github.com/osudrl/IsaacLabDRAIL
My github account email: bikcrum@gmail.com

PS: Other members and owners of this repo are also encountering the same problem.

Thank you,
Bikram Pandit

I'm experiencing the same issue. I'm migrating the repositories from BItbucket to GitHub. We have been using Git LFS on Bitbucket with no issues however it needed to be explicitly enabled for a repository there. Now when migrating one of the repositories with LFS files to GitHub I'm doing the following steps:

> git clone --mirror git@bitbucket.org:<org>/<repo>
> git push --mirror git@github.com:<org>/<repo>
> git lfs fetch --all
> git lfs push git@github.com:<org>/<repo> --all
batch response: Git LFS is disabled for this repository.
Uploading LFS objects:   0% (0/4), 0 B | 0 B/s, done.
batch response: Git LFS is disabled for this repository.

I followed the very same steps to push this repository to my private github account and it worked just fine, so I guess there some setting on organization level which is preventing me from pushing LFS files to the organization repository, however I have not found any information online about this specific setting and GitHub support keeps saying that it's not something that needs to be explicitly enabled. I thought one of the ruleset we configured might prevent it so I went and disabled all of them, but that didn't help.

I'm so disappointed with the level of support from GitHub taking in account we are on the Enterprise Cloud subscription. I have a strong feeling that they don't even try to look into problem. When I mentioned to them I was able to get the same repository pushed to my private account, but struggling to do that with the organization's repository - they congratulated me with the successful migration. I opened a support ticket 3 days ago, but the problem has not been solved yet.
