How to delete Git LFS files from BitBucket Data Center

Parimal Mehta May 29, 2025 edited

My company currently uses BitBucket Data Center v9.4.2. My team has a project that is source controlled with a Git repository on BitBucket. 

We are planning to start using Git LFS because we want to source control some larger binary files.

My questions are:

 

  1. In the future, if I need to remove some old Git LFS files from source control, how do I delete Git LFS files from BitBucket Data Center?
  2. One option I read about(Check [2]) - To delete Git LFS objects from a repository, delete and recreate the repository. Is the repository mentioned my Git repository or a separate Git LFS repository?


I have seen some answers, but they are related to either Cloud or Server:

Thank you!
