Reading, not writing
This mount is read-only, the way agithub mount is. A Hub write is
a commit, and a POSIX write cannot say where a commit ends, so echo >,
rm, cp and mv are refused here rather than silently making one commit
per file. The hf CLI is the write half: hf download --local-dir
puts a copy on a ram or disk mount, which is an ordinary writable filesystem,
and hf upload sends it back as a single commit.

Shell Commands
Every read command in HF Buckets’ set works here, as do the text processing and path utilities, which only read. What does not is the File Operations group: this mount is read-only, sorm and touch are refused, as is any command asked to write into it.
