## Downloading instruction

### Command line

Firstly, install Huggingface Client

```shell
pip install -U "huggingface_hub[cli]"
```

Then, downoad the individual model file the a local directory

```shell
huggingface-cli download tensorblock/Llama3-ChatQA-1.5-70B-GGUF --include "Llama3-ChatQA-1.5-70B-Q2_K.gguf" --local-dir MY_LOCAL_DIR
```

If you wanna download multiple model files with a pattern (e.g., `*Q4_K*gguf`), you can try:

```shell
huggingface-cli download tensorblock/Llama3-ChatQA-1.5-70B-GGUF --local-dir MY_LOCAL_DIR --local-dir-use-symlinks False --include='*Q4_K*gguf'
```
