> if Git is configured globally to apply delay-capable clean/smudge filters (such as Git LFS)
What is the simple test for whether this is the case or not?
Is this a default-on scenario?

As suggested in GitHub's announcement post[1], you can test this with the following:
`git config --show-scope --get-regexp 'filter\..*\.process'` (replace the single quotes by double quotes on Windows Command Prompt)

On Windows yes, because Git-for-Windows configures Git LFS by default.

Short version: there is no exact equivalent for POSIX symlinks on Windows, and the closest thing is unavailable for non-admins by default unless Developer Mode is enabled and a relatively recent Windows 10 version is used. Therefore, symlink emulation support is only turned on by default when that scenario is detected.

No, LFS is something you would have to explicitly enable, however it is pretty common to do so if you want to store binary blobs in Git.
