GVFS Updates: More Performance, More Availability

This post details performance improvements in GVFS, including an O(modified) approach that scales with edited files rather than downloaded files. It also describes optimizations to `git status` by updating Git configuration with more granularity to avoid slowdowns, and the removal of a network roundtrip during `git add` and `git commit` by disabling server-side object existence checks. A custom database engine tuned for GVFS needs has replaced the Extensible Storage Engine (ESE). Additionally, GVFS 1.0 is now available with pre-built binaries, simplifying installation for users on Windows 10 Creators Update or later. The post also announces industry adoption of GVFS by GitHub and experimental support by Bitbucket, with SourceTree, Tower for Windows, and gmaster clients also supporting GVFS.
