Changing name of packaged and published model

🤗Hub
1

Hi,

I accidentally forgot to change the name of a model before packaging and publishing it, but I no longer have access to the model or package itself, apart from through the Hub where I pushed it to.
I know it is possible through Settings to change the name of the HF repo, but since the wheel and the .dist-info doesn’t change this messes downloading the model up.

Is it possible to change the name of the HF repo AND the wheel + the .dist-info, so that I may pip install it using the name that I actually wanted?

Also on a sidenote: It seems faulty that the “Use in SpaCy” in the top right corner of a model repo wrongly bases the destination of the wheel off of the repo name, rather than the actual destination of the wheel.

Yes, you can change your Hugging Face model name by renaming the repository on the Hugging Face Hub. Here’s how you can do it:

  1. Go to Your Model Repository:
  • Log in to your Hugging Face account.
  • Navigate to the repository of the model you want to rename.
  1. Access Settings:
  • Once in the repository, look for a “Settings” option.
  1. ** Rename or transfer this model**:
  • In the settings, you should see an option to rename or transfer the repository. Enter the new name and save the changes.
