No option to disable LFS, causing giant sdist tarball

lfs: true

I have a package with some test data stored under Git LFS. But I never want to package them for distribution. They are just for dev testing. There does not seem to be an option to not grab LFS in this workflow, causing my sdist tarball to blow up from 100 kB or so to 1.1 GB.

What data is included or excluded in the source distribution is something that should be configurable via setuptools or the MANIFEST.in?

Sure. In the end, it is easier for me to write my own workflow to not call the LFS checkout and be done with it. Though I guess if I ever have time to revisit, I will have to hunt down all the files and update the manifest properly. If you think lfs should always be true, then you can close this as won't fix. Thanks for the quick reply!
