The `filter.lfs` configuration is set by Git LFS [1] in order to
correctly filter large files into your working copy.

You can safely ignore these, or remove them if you are not using Git
LFS.

On macOS, you can use Homebrew [2] to install any version of Git.
Install the latest via:

  brew update && brew install git

Thanks,
