git lfs fails to track a file after I rename it

Question

I keep running into this issue where I rename a file that is being tracked under git lfs, and when I push up the change to my repo, the file is no longer being tracked by git lfs.

Does anyone know how to resolve this?

Answer 1

Apparently git add --renormalize . resolves this issue.

Answer 2

I erased the line of the file from .gitattributes and then ran git lfs track <new_file_path>
