This is happening because Large Media is being used for this site. Is the Large Media add-on installed for Netlify CLI on this system and is the Git credential helper being loaded in .bash_profile?

If you are unsure, please send us the output of the following command:

$ netlify lm:info
  ✔ Checking Git version [2.26.2]
  ✔ Checking Git LFS version [2.10.0]
  ✔ Checking Git LFS filters
  ✔ Checking Netlify's Git Credentials version [0.1.9]

The Git credential helper line looks something like this (for bash):

# Netlify Large Media
. /Users/username/.netlify/helper/path.bash.inc
# or maybe
. /home/username/.netlify/helper/path.bash.inc

If you don’t see the helper in .bash_profile or if the Netlify CLI doesn’t have the Large Media add-on installed, please let us know.

Thanks

I was actually missing some of the documented setup. Forestry’s preview server doesn’t support netlify CLI.

Needed to enable GIT_LFS_SKIP_SMUDGE https://forestry.io/docs/media/netlify-large-media/

And route image requests to netlifys version of the site not forestry’s preview server.

I will use the content you provided in a post commit build step to process new images though so it will come in handy.

As far as I can see the image transform service doesn’t provide webp so need to provide my own somehow.
