Gfci receptacles are cheaper than breakers.
If you put it outside, it needs to be tamper proof/water resistant and have a bubble cover.

Would there be a problem doing both? (Budget permitting, of course.)
Put a GF breaker in the panel before the wire goes underground, so you only have to dig 12".
Put a GF receptacle in the shed, so if a ground fault occurs in the shed, you can reset it without having to walk the 130' back to the house.
