MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for git-vfs [2]:
Abandoned package from 2022-01 for Microsoft's fork of Git-for- Windows.
Flagged OOD since 2023-04.
I don't see why this would be useful on Linux. Repo's description also says it contains "Microsoft-specific patches".
I recommend deletion, based on the above mentioned facts.
