Practice Test 1 | Designing and Implementing Microsoft DevOps Solutions | AZ-400 | Dumps | Mock Test
Your team is planning to host a git repository using Azure Repos. The team would be hosting the following types of files-
- ASP.Net core code files
- Images, JavaScript files linked to the projects
- Audio and video files
The team wants to follow the best practices when it comes to storing the files in a git-based repository.
Which of the following can be used for managing large files such as Audio and Video files in your project?
A. Git locking
B. Git merge
C. Git LFS
D. Git squash merge
Answer – C
We can use Git LFS to manage such file types. Git Large File Storage (LFS) replaces large files such as audio samples, videos, datasets, and graphics with text pointers inside Git while storing the file contents on a remote server like GitHub.com or GitHub Enterprise.
This is also mentioned in the Microsoft documentation.
More info on Git LFS from github.com:
Option A is incorrect because locking is not supported by Git, any developer can edit any file at any point in time. File locking is one of the features related to Git LFS which is supported by some git hosting providers. This feature helps to make sure no other developer can edit the file when it’s locked.
Option B is incorrect because git merge is a command which is used to integrate changes from another branch.
Option C is CORRECT because Git LFS is used for storing large files from your source code.
Option D is incorrect because squash merge is a merging strategy.
