Description

Making an argument for tracking to move everything to git-lfs so that downloading the repos locally isn't multiple GBs, and it might clean up the history a bit. But that's a larger discussion because of bandwidth

So we could use something like Hugging Face, but that ruins the beauty of all the collaboration going on in that repo.
