Gitlint vs GVFS: What are the differences?

Developers describe Gitlint as "Linting your Git commit messages". Git commit message linter written in python (for Linux and Mac, experimental on Windows), checks your commit messages for style. On the other hand, GVFS is detailed as "Git Virtual File System (by Microsoft)". GVFS virtualizes the file system beneath your git repo so that git and all tools see a fully hydrated repo, but GVFS only downloads objects as they are needed. GVFS also manages git's sparse-checkout to ensure that git operations like status, checkout, etc., can be as quick as possible.

Gitlint and GVFS can be primarily classified as "Git" tools.

GVFS is an open source tool with 5.3K GitHub stars and 417 GitHub forks. Here's a link to GVFS's open source repository on GitHub.
