Hi  
Smoke test runtime gives following error when importing transformers package. Earlier it was working.  
ImportError: cannot import name ‘CommitOperationAdd’ from ‘huggingface\_hub’ (/opt/conda/envs/condaenv/lib/python3.10/site-packages/huggingface\_hub/ **init**.py)

Thanks for raising. There was a recent PR adding the [ASAP package](https://github.com/drivendataorg/visiomel-melanoma-runtime/pull/21) which may have changed the `huggingface_hub` version. We’ll look into it.
