What is difference between the below two options while checking out new project
1, File - > new -> Project from Version control -> GitHub
2, File - > new -> Project from Version control -> Git
My understanding is, Using first option we can checkout a repository from GitHub. Then what is the use of second option?

Git is a revision control system, a tool to manage your source code history.
GitHub is a hosting service for Git repositories.
So they are not the same thing: Git is the tool, GitHub is the service for projects that use Git. Git vs Github
