My recommendation is that you should:
1. Rewrite the history of your fork, remove the unnecessary commits
with
the comments "Create test" and "Remove test". [1] You may find
some
recommendations never to rewrite the git history because it causes
lots
of confusion to other users but you can ignore them in your case
because
there are not "other users" of your fork (yet).
2. git push -f
This command updates your github repo, "-f" confirms that you want
to
rewrite the history.
3. Make a pull request. [2]
My GitHub-Account is first of all to follow projects. I have no real
practical experience with git. If necessary, when things are solved
concerning Zanata, I will have a closer look at the git docs.

The project maintainers have enough power to review accept or reject
your pull request but probably not enough knowledge about the German
language so it may be difficult for them to review.
I am aware of this.

As Jean-Baptiste mentioned, it is reasonable to manage the
translation
of Flatpak docs via Zanata. [3] But this is a job of project
maintainers,
I'm not sure you have enough power to do it (although if you do you
are
welcome). Anyway, you are welcome to make a formal introduction and
join
the German translation team. [4] I'm sorry I can't help more, I'm
neither
a German translator nor a Flatpak maintainer.
I would be very interested to work with Zanata and to see how it works.
Would be more convenient to work there. I have time this evening and
tomorrow to read the docs. And yes, at this point of time a project
maintainer should do the job. Mostly cause I don't know the processes
between the teams and I prefer to make one step after the other. I
could concentrate on formal aspects of the documentation. Would be
enough for now ...
I will write some words for the German translation team.
Thank you for the help,
Markus
