Support wildcards in huggingface-cli upload

[Wauplin]

It would be a nice QoL improvement to be able to do

huggingface-cli upload my-cool-model *.safetensors

to upload all local safetensors files to the Hub at once.

At the moment this is possible by doing

huggingface-cli upload my-cool-model . --include="*.safetensors"

To do so, one would need to:

• check if local_path contains a wildcard *
• if yes, set local_path="." and include="*.safetensors" before calling upload_folder

Hi. I would like to work on this issue.

[mohitmarvania]

If possible, I would love to work on this issue, as this will be my first contribution to Hugging Face (Thus, might require some guidance in implementing test cases 😄).

[Wauplin]

Hi there! Thanks both for proposing yourself 🤗 To avoid having duplicated work, let's say that @devesh-2002 you can start working on it and ping us once you have a working PR.
@mohitmarvania if your first contribution is not on this one, feel free to pick another one to get started 😀

Hey @Wauplin, this sounds like a great improvement! I’d love to work on it.

My plan is to update the CLI so that if local_path contains a , it automatically sets local_path="." and include=".safetensors" before calling upload_folder. That way, huggingface-cli upload my-cool-model *.safetensors will work just like the existing --include method
