What I do is
git clone https://hf.co/whatever/model
git -C model lfs install --local
git -C model lfs fetch
If you git lfs pull it's going to make two copies of the lfs blobs (the lfs object and the checked out copy). Fetch only gets the blobs, no checkout.
The lfs files are going to be just links, so I made a script that "exports" the models to a separate directory by linking all the stuff together, then I convert to gguf from that directory.
--local is just so lfs doesn't get installed globally for all future cloned repos.
