What is the issue?

When the command 'ollama show --modelfile llama3:70b' is entered, it should have displayed information about the model's modelfile, but instead, it displayed license information.
The "--modelfile: parameter for "ollama show" command seems not working.

Ollama version

0.1.36

Hey @omegatao It shows the complete file, you just need to scroll up (or pipe it to something like more/less).
