Thanks for sending this with extra context, it really helps reviewing!

With the small changes below,

I don't have a better idea, but I wish we had a less unwieldy term for "inexact rename detection".

s/Fehler/Bug/?

I interpret "Fehler" in such a message as a user-caused problem, whereas this message means the program doesn't handle a case that it really should.

Show 6 quoted lines

Not new, but "[I am] assuming --only paths" should really be translated as such, e.g.

  nehme --only an

(Leaving off the "paths"; I think it reads better without it even in English.)

Show 16 quoted lines

Nit: you added "automatisch" in the first one, but the second one
doesn't have it even though the difference between them is only "in
background".

Show 5 quoted lines

für manuelles Aufräumen?

This would read better as

  Kann Notiz-Daten nicht von Nicht-Blob Objekt '%s' lesen.

since the key point is that we refuse any non-blob object, not that we can't read it.
