We study expansions near the boundary of solutions to the Dirichlet problem for minimal graphs in the hyperbolic space and prove the local convergence of such expansions if the boundary is locally analytic. As a consequence, we prove a conjecture by F.-H. Lin that the minimal graph is analytic up to the boundary if the boundary is analytic and the minimal graph is smooth up to the boundary.
