I suspect that their LFS bandwidth has been exhausted, so now one only sees the LFS metadata.

Indeed, `git lfs fetch` is giving:

`This repository is over its data quota. Account responsible for LFS bandwidth should purchase more data packs to restore access.`

TIL that there is the ability to upgrade LFS access on github.com

Buying bandwidth from github for LFS blobs seems the wrong approach to me, assuming this is some hobby project.

Is there an implementation to seed LFS blobs as BitTorrent?

I assume it's just getting a lot of traffic from HN and github have some limits in place to stop it being abused for content hosting. I imagine it'll start working again once the traffic goes back to normal.
