huggingface_hub [v2.3.0] Bucket live-follow, faster `HfFileSystem` listings and more
Update2 days agoUnverifiedAdded Oct 24, 2026
๐ Keep Bucket listings fresh with live_follow=True HfFileSystem caches directory listings, so files added to a Bucket by another process did not show up until you called invalidate_cache(). With live_follow=True, HfFileSystem opens one background connection per listed Bucket to receive its file changes from the Hub.
