Issue Summary

In https://www.atlassian.com/git/tutorials/git-lfs "Tracking files with Git LFS," one of the patterns is:

# track all files in the Assets directory and all subdirectories
$ git lfs track "Assets/"

However, "git help attributes" states:

The rules by which the pattern matches paths are the same as in .gitignore files (see gitignore(5)), with a few exceptions:

• Negative patterns are forbidden.

• Patterns that match a directory do not recursively match paths inside that directory (so using the trailing-slash path/ syntax is pointless in an attributes file; use path/* instead).*

Testing revealed that the command should be changed to:

git lfs track "Assets/**"

Please update the documentation accordingly.

Steps to Reproduce

git lfs track "Assets/"

Expected Results

Git should track the directory and its subdirectories.

Actual Results

Git only tracks the current directory.

Workaround

Use the command below instead:

git lfs track "Assets/**"
