      Atlassian status as of May 2019

      Hi everyone,

      Git LFS file locking is supported starting from Bitbucket Server 6.3.

      Details on locking and unlocking feature is here - Working with Git LFS Files.

      Anton Genkin
      Product Manager - Bitbucket Server

      Original description is below:

      The Git LFS 2.0 client has been released and supports the new Git LFS File Locking API. Bitbucket Server currently (as at version 4.14) does not support this API.

      The Git LFS client, upon attempting to lock a file will report the server does not implement the locking API:

      $ git lfs lock galaxy1.jpg
Lock failed: Not Implemented: https://user@bitbucket.example.com/scm/myproject/lfstest.git/info/lfs/locks

      SSH Caveat:

      Where an SSH remote is used the error message indicating "lock failed" will be different, it will report as an "Authorization error" as below:

      Lock failed: Authorization error: https://bitbucket.example.com/scm/myproject/lfstest.git/info/lfs/locks
Check that you have proper access to the repository

      The reason for this is, when authenticating via SSH a JWT authentication token is returned, for use on the Git LFS HTTP based APIs. While the token is valid for accessing the Batch API (for example to upload a file) it is not valid for the (non existent) /info/lfs/locks API.
