How to track large files (database, PSD, bin) in Git?

Sometimes you have PSD or a small-ish SQLite file you’d like to track with Git. The problem is Git is bad at tracking changes in big binary files by default. With Git Large File Storage (LFS) you can replace these large files with text pointers while storing the file contents on a remote server. Both GitHub and BitBucket support it. Here is how to get started:

1. Install Git LFS extension (Mac here):

brew install git-lfs

Introduction

This is about documenting getting Linux running on the late 2016 and mid 2017 MPB's; the focus is mostly on the MacBookPro13,3 and MacBookPro14,3 (15inch models), but I try to make it relevant and provide information for MacBookPro13,1, MacBookPro13,2, MacBookPro14,1, and MacBookPro14,2 (13inch models) too. I'm currently using Fedora 27, but most the things should be valid for other recent distros even if the details differ. The kernel version is 4.14.x (after latest update).

The state of linux on the MBP (with particular focus on MacBookPro13,2) is also being tracked on https://github.com/Dunedan/mbp-2016-linux . And for Ubuntu users there are a couple tutorials (here and here) focused on that distro and the MacBook.

Note: For those who have followed these instructions ealier, and in particular for those who have had problems with the custom DSDT, modifying the DSDT is not necessary anymore - se

kbtflash

Some time ago, I reversed the protocol used by KBT Pure Pro for flashing its firmware in a hope of being able to flash a custom firmware (or do some BadUSB demonstration). This script is able to upload a firmware binary onto the keyboard.

The binary is obfuscated (already solved on SE) However, the firmware has a 32-bit checksum (at the end of the image), which does not seem to be any of the commonly used ones (there is this) (EDIT: Actually turned out to be a standard one, see edit below). If the uploaded firmware checksum does not match, the keyboard stays in the bootloader.
