safetensors 0.2.0 (2025-08-18)

• Refactored the package so other packages can extend it. This is possible by:

  1. Implementing the safe_tensor_buffer and safe_tensor_meta methods.
  2. Registering the framework with the reflection safetensors_frameworks.

• safe_load_file no longer defines a default framework. Set framework='torch' to get the previous behavior.

• Added support for BF16 data types.

safetensors 0.1.1 (2023-07-10)
