Stable Diffusion - Automatic

Heavily opinionated custom fork of https://github.com/AUTOMATIC1111/stable-diffusion-webui


Notes

Fork is as close as up-to-date with origin as time allows
All code changes are merged upstream whenever possible

Fork adds extra functionality:

  • Ships with additional extensions
    e.g. System Info, Steps Animation, etc.
  • Ships with set of CLI tools that rely on SD API for execution:
    e.g. generate, train, bench, etc.
    Full list

Fork does differ in few things:

  • Additional simplified start script

    ./automatic.sh
    Existing webui.sh still exists for fresh installs to auto-install dependencies, etc.

  • Drops compatibility with python 3.7 and requires 3.10
  • Updated Python libraries to latest known compatible versions
    e.g. accelerate, transformers, numpy, etc.
  • Includes opinionated System and Options configuration
    e.g. samplers, upscalers, etc.
  • Includes reskinned UI
    Black and orange dark theme with fixed width options panels and larger previews
  • Includes SD2 configuration files
  • Uses simplified folder structure
    e.g. /train, /outputs/*
  • Modified training templates

Only Python library which is not auto-updated is PyTorch itself as that is very system specific
For some Torch optimizations notes, see Wiki

Fork is compatible with regular PyTorch 1.13 as well as pre-release of PyTorch 2.0
