Trying to clone/fork this project to an internal remote (based on GitLab) I found that any attempt to push the repo was rejected (by gitlab prereceive hooks) because of missing LFS objects.
Actually, just cloning the repo from GitHub I can see that there are references to missing LFS objects

error: failed to fetch some objects from 'https://github.com/rbnvrw/nd2reader.git/info/lfs'
The concerned objects are the following (the first one still present in the repo, the others deleted in previous commits):
$ /tmp/nd2reader> git lfs ls-files --all

If someone of the developers still have access to these file, would it be possible to upload them to GitHub (git lfs push origin --all)?
In case these files are completely lost/missing I think the only way to get a integer repository is to rewrite history from the first commit that referenced one of these files (there are automated tools for that). Do you believe it is a viable approach?
