git-lfs support Follow

Our team has started to use git-lfs with our Github repository, however this requires the extra git-lfs executable to be present within the git installation.

I've only had a quick look into how git plugs into Teamcity, is Teamcity using it's own rolled version of git or can it be instructed to use the system git?

Also, I notice that there's no .git folder in the work directory. Does this exist anywhere or am I misunderstanding how the VCS plugins work?

Edit: I see the git binary config in the VCS root, so that's okay. However I think git-lfs isn't working because the git hooks aren't initialised.
