Bad installation readme

You mentioned that one of the ways to install PowerPaint is:

git clone https://github.com/open-mmlab/PowerPaint
conda env create -f requirements/ppt.yaml
conda activate ppt
  1. No file ppt.yaml (it's ppt.yml) -> fix this.
  2. Add 'cd PowerPaint' after cloning repo -> more user-friendly

With these instructions I get error:

ERROR: No matching distribution found for torch==2.3.1+cu118

I followed the other method from README and also encountered issues. Here's the working installation procedure:

  1. Clone repository (use HTTPS or SSH) and go to the directory
git clone [https://github.com/open-mmlab/PowerPaint...](https://github.com/open-mmlab/PowerPaint.git)
cd PowerPaint
git checkout main  # Ensure you're on the main branch
  1. Create and set up environment with Python 3.9:
conda create --name ppt python=3.9
conda activate ppt
  1. pip install -r requirements/requirements.txt
pip install huggingface_hub==0.25.0 (Fixes ImportError: cannot import name 'cached_download' from 'huggingface_hub')
pip install gradio==3.43.0 (fixes Error in gradio mask area)
  1. Set up Git LFS and download model
conda install git-lfs
git lfs install
git lfs clone https://huggingface.co/JunhaoZhuang/PowerPaint_v2/ ./checkpoints/ppt-v2
  1. Fix model file structure
    When you try to run demo with
python app.py --share --version ppt-v2 --checkpoint_dir checkpoints/ppt-v2 --local_files_only

you get error like this:

OSError: Error no file named diffusion_pytorch_model.bin found in directory checkpoints/ppt-v2/realisticVisionV60B1_v51VAE/unet

So fixed this with:

 cd checkpoints/ppt-v2/realisticVisionV60B1_v51VAE/unet
 ln -s diffusion_pytorch_model-002.bin diffusion_pytorch_model.bin
  1. And than you can finally run the demo and enjoy:
python app.py --share --version ppt-v2 --checkpoint_dir checkpoints/ppt-v2 --local_files_only

Suggestions
• Please fix installation readme or check the points above to make it more user-friendly.
• Mention, that you need to checkout to 'main' to be ok
• I think about 70% of issues are about installation. If you make the points above well-guided, it will be much easier to use PowerPaint

I enjoy your work and want others can do same :)
