I admit that I don't really understand what you mean. I can't
see a big difference in line lengths. It's not more than others
have.
Do you mean that the first line just lacks of a "warning: "
part? In this case, the message needs to get fixed.
Imagine that this line starts with "warning: ", the updated
German translation would looks like this:

msgstr ""
"Warnung: 'push.default' ist nicht gesetzt; der implizit gesetzte Wert wird\n"
"in Git 2.0 von 'matching' nach 'simple' geändert. Um diese Meldung zu\n"
"unterdrücken und das aktuelle Verhalten nach Änderung des Standardwertes\n"
"beizubehalten, benutze:"
[...]

I'll send you another pull request contains this update.
