I see you are defining new glossary terms:

  shallow     unvollständig
  grafted     gesondert eingehängt

I guess the first one is reasonable if we don't call anything
"incomplete"?  (I don't think we do, just checking.)

I don't really like 'gesondert eingehängt', how about 'transplantiert'
instead?  Or just say graft=Graft and use 'mit Grafts' or some similar
workaround, since it is a highly specialized term.

Doesn't sound right -- the original seems to describe the situation
where you are using :(exclude) without any non-excluded paths, whereas
the German first sentence sounds like you are using :(exclude) when it
doesn't match any paths.

Perhaps it works if translated very liberally:

":(exclude) Muster, aber keine anderen Pfadspezifikationen angegeben.\n"
"Vielleicht haben Sie vergessen entweder ':/' oder '.' hinzuzufügen?"

In both of these the key point is "both".  Perhaps use "sowohl... als
auch".

Do we still need the trailing colon?
