# Command R+ GGUF

## Description
This repository contains experimental GGUF weights that are currently compatible with [pull request #6491](https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp/pull/6491) in the `llama.cpp`. I will update them once support for Command R+ is merged into the llama.cpp repository.

## Getting started
1. Clone the `Carolinabanana/llama.cpp` repository:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/Carolinabanana/llama.cpp.git llama.cpp-fork
cd llama.cpp-fork
git reset --hard 8b6577bd631fec33eeadb4b9dfc5a07ed2118148
```
2. Build it using `make`
3. Use it in the same way as the regular `llama.cpp`. If you're unsure of how to start, you can use the following command as a starting point:
```bash
./main -p "<|START_OF_TURN_TOKEN|><|USER_TOKEN|>Who are you?<|END_OF_TURN_TOKEN|><|START_OF_TURN_TOKEN|><|CHATBOT_TOKEN|>" --color -m /path/to/command-r-plus-Q3_K_L-00001-of-00002.gguf
```

## Merging Weights
After commit `8a28d12`, weights are split with `gguf-split`, which means that you don't have to merge weights. Simply pass the first split, as in the example above, and `llama.cpp` will automatically load all splits. If, for some reason, you want to merge splits, you can use the following command:
```bash
./gguf-split --merge /path/to/command-r-plus-f16-00001-of-00005.gguf /path/to/command-r-plus-f16-combined.gguf
```
