Since "bloßes Rep." does not convey any sensible meaning to a german 
reader (at least it doesn't to me) it might as well be "bare". Also bare 
is used as parameter to commands

Anyone used to the english client will switch as soon as he has to read 
this. No idea how to improve that though except to just use the english 
terms like the pro git translation does.

Use upstream as it is used as parameter to commands

fetch = fetch

pull = pull

push = push

established vocabulary used in stack programming as well as in vcs. 
Should not be translated.

"aufräumen" is the better verb but there is no noun for it.

whitespace = whitespace

There is no german word for whitespace

"mittels "git add" hinzufügen" if you want to emphasize that you add 
something with the command

As a noun, "Teil-Commit"

"zurücksetzen"
