Git-tfs (found at https://github.com/git-tfs/git-tfs[]) is a .NET project, and (as of this writing) it only runs on Windows.

To work with Git repositories, it uses the .NET bindings for libgit2, a library-oriented implementation of Git which is highly performant and allows a lot of flexibility with the guts of a Git repository.

It interfaces with Git repositories through JGit (a JVM implementation of Git), which means it has virtually no limitations in terms of Git functions.
