To download the main (only useful if you only care about measurement.json) branch to a folder called Hercules-2.5-Mistral-7B-exl2:

mkdir Hercules-2.5-Mistral-7B-exl2
huggingface-cli download bartowski/Hercules-2.5-Mistral-7B-exl2 --local-dir Hercules-2.5-Mistral-7B-exl2 --local-dir-use-symlinks False
