Replace Deprectated Repository with HfApi

[cochaviz]

🚀 Feature

I got various errors uploading my models to huggingface_hub (didn't include this as a bug report as even the proposed commit that should have fixed my issue worked in my particular context), all related to the Repository object. This class seems to be deprecated.

Motivation

The use of the use of Repository should be replaced by using the HfApi object (https://huggingface.co/docs/huggingface_hub/concepts/git_vs_http).

Pitch

No response

Alternatives

As mentioned before, there should have been a fix in the huggingface_hub repository (this fix is not yet published to pipy: huggingface/huggingface_hub#2320)

Additional context

Already fixed in PR #462 😄
