How to Ignore Git LFS Unable to Find Source

I have been given an old repository with LFS but some of the (probably older) files are missing so I cannot push:

git push -u origin
Locking support detected on remote "origin". Consider enabling it with:
  $ git config lfs.https://gitlab.com/gitlabaccount/repo.git/info/lfs.locksverify true
Unable to find source for object 43cb9e6d1d15bb8d31af911aa69a15a67174c5 (try running git lfs fetch --all)                                                                                                                                           
Uploading LFS objects:  87% (600/691), 546 MB | 0 B/s, done
error: failed to push some refs to '[email protected]:gitlabaccount/repo.git'

My colleague allegedly ran git lfs fetch --all and it did not fix the problem.

I would really just like a copy of the latest, all history, and a build that works now. I'm not really worried about the older files and my preference would be to complete the push and lose a few missing lfs files but the lfs error will not let me.

Gitlab would allow me to disable lfs on the project but I dont know what will happen to the size/limits if I do this. Not sure what would be the proper procedure to enable then disable it on the server or the client. Alternatively, is there a "ignore missing files" option for the push?

git config lfs.allowincompletepush true

works for me. It ignores broken lfs objects.
