go-git vs GVFS: What are the differences?

What is go-git? *Low-level and extensible Git client library in Go *. A low level and highly extensible git client library for reading repositories from git servers. It is written in Go from scratch, without any C dependencies.

What is GVFS? 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.

go-git and GVFS are both open source tools. GVFS with 4.81K GitHub stars and 358 forks on GitHub appears to be more popular than go-git with 4.12K GitHub stars and 433 GitHub forks.
