I already like the translation way better than the one that

Full Ack, I can't find my way through git-gui or gitk when I forget
to start them with "LC_ALL=C" (And when you use git mainly via these
guis, you will have to learn /every/ git command again when you
start using the command line). IMHO terms that have a special in git
should not be translated, so I would even vote for leaving terms like
"fetch", "fast-forward" and maybe even "tracking-branch" as they are.
Full Ack again! Many german IT people use many english special terms daily
(like compiler, linker, terminal, interrupt). Normally the translation of
the special terms generates confusion all over the place. That's why I
also start git-gui or gitk only in english (and the manpages too, by the
way).
Thus the git special terms should not be translated, even though I might
be helpful to have a glossary which explains, what a "fast-forward" is.
