Question

Drag and Drop Question Your company has a project in Azure DevOps named Project1. All the developers at the company have Windows 10 devices. You need to create a Git repository for Project1. The solution must meet the following requirements: - Support large binary files. - Store binary files outside of the repository. - Use a standard Git workflow to maintain the metadata of the binary files by using commits to the repository. Which three actions should you perform in sequence on each developer's device? To answer, move the appropriate actions from the list of actions to the answer area and arrange them in the correct order. Answer:

Explanation

Git Large File Storage (LFS) is the correct solution because it stores large binary files outside the repository (on a remote server) while maintaining lightweight pointer files (metadata) inside the repository using a standard Git workflow. The correct sequence is: (1) Configure PAT-based authentication (required for Azure DevOps Git access with LFS), (2) Perform a custom installation of Git for Windows that includes Git LFS (installs the necessary tooling), and (3) Configure Git LFS file tracking (specifies which file types/patterns are tracked by LFS). This satisfies all three requirements: large binary file support, external storage, and standard Git commit-based metadata management.
