Remove the
--n-parts
command line option and correspondingn_parts
parameter that gets passed around without actually doing anything.This came up in #1503; my suggestion is for people dealing with large files to just use some other tool (such as GNU
split
or some ZIP/RAR archiver) to split them. Of course if we decide that llama.cpp should handle multi-part files, this PR shouldn't be merged.I haven't touched
llama_model_loader
- that callsguess_n_parts
to determine the number of parts from the first file. I'm not sure if there are multi-part model files still around that rely on this. If not we might remove that too: replace thefile_loaders
vector by a single instance.
