Minor nit: the indent (it's simply a continuation indent for the "your
upstream is gone" message) is not consistent with other continuation
indents in the same vein, e.g.

  #: remote.c:1794
  msgid "  (use \"git push\" to publish your local commits)\n"
  msgstr "  (benutzen Sie \"git push\" um lokale Commits zu publizieren)\n"

Here you translate 'entry' once as Eintrag, and once as Sektion?  Is the
latter just a mistake from the fuzzy translation?

According to the glossary:

  When a message is referring to the command, e.g. in error messages, we
  do not translate the term.

Isn't this an instance of this rule?  You could translate gc to git-gc
to avoid some confusion, but I think it specifically refers to running
the command.

"ein einziges Paket" -- or is that my Swiss German again?

Also, the glossary says pack -> Pack-Datei.  So it'd end up at "eine
einzige Pack-Datei".

Clever :-)

On an entirely different note, we don't parse German approxidates, do
we?
