git commit error: large file detected

Hi I'm developing an application xcode for ios 8.1 I have used googleMaps framework for autocomplete feature. when I try to push my project in Git I was getting large file detection error. later have tried with git lfs and tracked the file detected by git (i.e., GoogleMaps) then I tries push still showing the same error.

iSpire-Solution-1:productionPreFinal 2$ git push -u origin master

Please suggest me how can i Manage git lfs. and is there any option reduce the file size of googleMaps frameworks in iOS.

Thanks.

Assuming you're using CocoaPods as a dependency manager for your Xcode project, consider following this advice and only committing the Podfile as the pods can be regenerated from the Podfile.

This means that you're not committing over Github's file limit and you're keeping your repository streamlined.

To ensure you don't commit any Pods to your repo, just add the pods/ directory to your/a .gitignore file.
