That's a bit strange and calls for a proper translation of "branch point". "Abzweigung" is really tempting, but probably does nothing to clarify the intent ;-)

Perhaps "Abzweigpunkt".  dict.leo.org has some other reasonable ideas.

Show 5 quoted lines

Huh?! :-)

Even if you translated "sparse entry" as "eingeschränkte Einträge" -- it doesn't have a wiki entry -- using "Beschränkung" in the same sentence is just confusing.

How about

  Pfadspezifikationen ignorieren Einstellungen zum partiellen Auschecken

Thanks for your work!
