for huggingface-style conventions:
global_cache_dir('diffusers')
global_cache_dir('hub')
global_cache_dir('transformers') # not used?
Current HuggingFace documentation (mid-Jan 2023) indicates that
transformers models will be cached into a "transformers" subdirectory,
but in practice they seem to go into "hub". But if needed:
global_cache_dir('transformers')
One other caveat is that HuggingFace is moving some diffusers models
into the "hub" subdirectory as well, so this will need to be revisited
from time to time.
