-"""Base class for 'Raw' models.

-The RawModel class is the base class of LoRAModelRaw and TextualInversionModelRaw,
-and is used for type checking of calls to the model patcher. Its main purpose
-is to avoid a circular import issues when lora.py tries to import BaseModelType
-from invokeai.backend.model_manager.config, and the latter tries to import LoRAModelRaw
-from lora.py.
-
-The term 'raw' was introduced to describe a wrapper around a torch.nn.Module
-that adds additional methods and attributes.
