This error is due to not having git lfs installed and initialized before cloning the project. If you experience something like this, make sure you have git lfs initialized for your user account, and if necessary re-clone (recursive) the project.

@jwhear Thanks for the issue, I see zig-gamedev's build.zig has this to ensure the user knows about the missing Git LFS requirement. I'll add these to our build.zig to help clear this up for anyone else.

Okay, I just pushed those changes to build.zig and it should make this issue more clear for anyone that doesn't have Git LFS installed. Thanks again!
