I personally use git for deploying my hobby projects into cloud like Heroku. I came across the concept of sftp for uploading files. Now please differentiate these two deployments like when to use what.

This question is way too broad and open-ended. If you know the capabilities/functions of SFTP and git, you'll know whether they are applicable to a scenario you come across. There are numerous different scenarios one can imagine (of which there might be countless permutations), with others imagining even more scenarios, so where should we start and where should we end in this ocean of possibilities?
