Description

Hi

Is there an easy way to map the finetuned lora weights to the base litllama model? I see that the lora finetuning saves checkpoints that include only the finetuned weights ("lora.A" and "lora.B"). I couldn't find a method that maps these back to the original base litllama model.

Thank you!

Research direction

No file, test, or entry point is named. Start by locating the LoRA fine-tuning checkpoint save/load path and the base litllama model code, then define completion as an export path that maps the saved lora.A and lora.B weights into a usable base-model checkpoint.
