Can you clarify?  Neither of those bugs points to a git issue if I
understand correctly.  They may be a git-lfs issue, though.

This kind of confusion is exactly why the Git project adopted a
trademark policy to prevent outside projects from identifying
themselves with Git: https://git-scm.com/about/trademark.
Unfortunately Git LFS's existence precedes that policy.  I believe
they got permission to continue using the name, confusing as it is.

Thanks,
Jonathan
