v1.3.0

Git LFS v1.3.0 brings some bug fixes and minor features to improve Git support. It also ships with a couple new experimental features:

1. tus.io support for resumable uploads. Set lfs.tustransfers=true in your Git config to use this for any supporting LFS servers.
2. Pluggable custom transfer adapters. See the docs for details on its use.
3. Basic file locking commands. Set GITLFSLOCKSENABLED=true to use them. These commands are experimental, and lack support from any LFS services. The commands and/or the API could change before becoming official.
