Clone voices

Clone this model repository

Make sure you have git-lfs

installed

Git

lfs (Large filesystem)

In my case on Fedora 39

sudo dnf install git-lfs | teelog

Aside

I use an alias to create a log file with a date stamp

alias teelog='tee -a ~/logfiles/dump_`date +"%Y-%m-%d_%H%M%S"`.log'

git lfs install

git clone https://huggingface.co/rhasspy/piper-voices

# if you want to clone without large files – just their pointers

# prepend your git clone with the following env var:

GIT_LFS_SKIP_SMUDGE=1
