Thanks a lot @ZiadHelal for offering to work on this feature. Please go ahead and submit a PR. You can also create a draft PR that does not yet cover all your points, and I can give early feedback, which is often better than trying to finish everything in one step.
Feature request
This pull request aims to introduce support for quantization in the VeRA PEFT method. This enhancement is in response to the issue #1921, which highlighted the need for compatibility between VeRA and quantized models.
Motivation
The motivation behind this feature request is to extend the functionality of the VeRA method to support models that have been quantized using techniques such as bitsandbytes. Currently, users face issues with dimension mismatches and incorrect tensor shapes when applying VeRA to quantized models. By adding support for quantization, we can improve the usability and flexibility of VeRA, making it a more powerful tool for a broader range of use cases.
