There's a faster way. If you only run git lfs pull on directories that need it, it saves time for big repository trees.

#!/bin/bash
# Walk the entire tree starting at $PWD and find all directories
# containing `.lfsconfig` file that says it's a Git clone
# directory that uses Git-LFS. For each such directory, do `git lfs
# pull`.
grep -l 'merge=lfs' $( find $PWD -name .lfsconfig ) /dev/null | while IFS= read -r line; do
    dir=$(dirname $line)
    echo $dir
    ( cd $dir ; git lfs pull )
done

Apparently with new version of repo tool you can initialize it using --git-lfs option

repo init -u <git_url> --git-lfs

Please correct me

As far as I know there is no solution for this without modify the repo tool, but you always can create an alias (in GNU/Linux) in the file ~/.bash_aliases or ~/.bashrc:

alias repo-lfs="repo sync && repo forall -c git lfs pull"

Then source the file source ~/.bash_aliases and instead of using repo sync, use the repo-lfs command.
