These are messages from the Git LFS tool, and this list does not provide
support for Git LFS, since it is a separate project not affiliated with
Git.

I would recommend that you create an issue on Git LFS's tracker at:

  https://github.com/git-lfs/git-lfs/issues/new

and mention that you are seeing lots of 'filepathfilter' logs. My
speculation is that this could be a slowdown in the 'filepathfilter'
code paths, or an entire-tree scan where 'filepathfilter' is invoked
every so often. I'd mention both of those as possibilities (or send a
link to this email on public-inbox), and see if anything comes up.
