App not accessing files stored with Git Large File System

I stored some huge files with Git LFS and pushed to Github. I have pulled my repo on PythonAnywhere and done the necessary installations but I'm getting an error that feels like my huge files are not being read from PythonAnywhere even though I can see them on the console. What can I do?

Git LFS stores the large files on a remote server. The files that you have checked out are just links to those. There is probably an additional step for you to get the actual large file from the server.

Hi glenn Do you know what additional step I need to take? I don't know what to do next. I really need help.

I haven't used Git LFS myself, but from googling around it looks like "git lfs pull" is the right command...?
