 We use [easyloggingpp](https://github.com/abumq/easyloggingpp) in order to log (mostly debug) information in the core library. Python bindings search for a configuration file in the working directory, so to configure logging, create `logging.conf` in the directory from which desbordante will be imported. In particular, when running the CLI with `python3 ./relative/path/to/cli.py`, `logging.conf` should be located in `.`.
 
+#### Troubleshooting Git LFS
+If, when cloning the repo with git lfs installed, `git clone` produces the following (or similar) error:
+```

+delete the already cloned version, set `GIT_LFS_SKIP_SMUDGE=1` environment variable and clone the repo again:
+```sh
