A long-standing issue with importing legacy checkpoints (both ckpt and
safetensors) is that the user has to identify the correct config file,
either by providing its path or by selecting which type of model the
checkpoint is (e.g. "v1 inpainting"). In addition, some users wish to
provide custom VAEs for use with the model. Currently this is done in
the WebUI by importing the model, editing it, and then typing in the
path to the VAE.
To improve the user experience, the model manager's
`heuristic_import()` method has been enhanced as follows:
1. When initially called, the caller can pass a config file path, in
which case it will be used.
2. If no config file provided, the method looks for a .yaml file in the
same directory as the model which bears the same basename. e.g.
```
my-new-model.safetensors
my-new-model.yaml
```
The yaml file is then used as the configuration file for
importation and conversion.
3. If no such file is found, then the method opens up the checkpoint
and probes it to determine whether it is V1, V1-inpaint or V2.
If it is a V1 format, then the appropriate v1-inference.yaml config
file is used. Unfortunately there are two V2 variants that cannot be
distinguished by introspection.
4. If the probe algorithm is unable to determine the model type, then its
last-ditch effort is to execute an optional callback function that can
be provided by the caller. This callback, named `config_file_callback`
receives the path to the legacy checkpoint and returns the path to the
config file to use. The CLI uses to put up a multiple choice prompt to
the user. The WebUI **could** use this to prompt the user to choose
from a radio-button selection.
5. If the config file cannot be determined, then the import is abandoned.
The user can attach a custom VAE to the imported and converted model
by copying the desired VAE into the same directory as the file to be
imported, and giving it the same basename. E.g.:
```
my-new-model.safetensors
my-new-model.vae.pt
```
For this to work, the VAE must end with ".vae.pt", ".vae.ckpt", or
".vae.safetensors". The indicated VAE will be converted into diffusers
format and stored with the converted models file, so the ".pt" file
can be deleted after conversion.
No facility is currently provided to swap a diffusers VAE at import
time, but this can be done after the fact using the WebUI and CLI's
model editing functions.
