I wrote a post about that .gitattributes and other Unity with git stuff here: https://franknine.github.io/posts/unity-git-en/#gitattributes

Not entirely sure I understand this one. I tried it on a new project and it basically turned EVERYTHING into LFS files. c# files, gitignore, csv files, hell even .txt files became LFS pointers. So really confused. I thought I'd goofed up the setup the first time, but same results on the second try.

I 100% agree this gist is flawed, as I stated oh boy 6 years ago? But yours seems to swing too far in the other direction unless I'm missing something.

EDIT: You know what? This is not true. I'm a lying SOB. I went back to your file again and somehow I must have gotten a corrupted copy or well I don't know what. But when I compared what I had downloaded to what was actually in your file, there were a TON of entries directly after the SQLite entry that was essentially forcing everything to be LFS and I have no idea where it came from. But it clearly isn't in your file, so.. round 3!

Just a quick reply before this gets closed. This is why I mention git check-attr. Make a dummy repo, add all kinds of files in it, and provide the gitattributes you want, commit them all locally (it's dummy we don't care, it's only local) and then just start looking into the attributes of files you want to check. If you learn how to read the git check-attr output, which is not that hard, you'll be able to debug such situations. It's such a handy tool, but not advertised enough, especially for such a known annoying thing. e.g. for .asset files, you just check the attributes and you can surmise which rule got matched and then figure out why.
