Yes, you need git with git lfs. Then just: `git clone https://huggingface.co/deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1`

  ssh [email protected] git lfs install
  Password:
  Git LFS initialized.
... so far so good ...

  ssh [email protected] git clone https://huggingface.co/deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1
  Password:
  Cloning into 'DeepSeek-R1'...
... success.

Done in the spirit of the Streisand Effect but I suppose the protest is watered down by the fact that this account is in Zurich ...

You probably want the GGUF versions, though, which are the ones you can actually run on reasonable hardware.

Full R1 version here: https://huggingface.co/unsloth/DeepSeek-R1-GGUF/tree/main/De...

Various smaller versions: https://huggingface.co/unsloth/DeepSeek-R1-GGUF/tree/main

There is also a 'BF16' version on that page with 16-bit weights, but I don't understand what it is or where it came from, given that the original model is FP8-native.
