Code of Conduct

What article on docs.github.com is affected?

https://docs.github.com/en/pull-requests/committing-changes-to-your-project/creating-and-editing-commits/creating-a-commit-with-multiple-authors

What part(s) of the article would you like to see updated?

In the second paragraph of the first section, the sentence

If you want to keep your email private, you can choose to use a GitHub-provided no-reply email for Git operations and ask other co-authors to list your no-reply email in commit trailers.

is translated on the German version as

Wenn du deine E-Mail-Adresse öffentlich machen möchtest, kannst du die von GitHub bereitgestellte no-reply-E-Mail-Adresse für Git-Vorgänge verwenden und andere Co-Autoren bitten, deine no-reply-Adresse in Commitnachspannen zu verwenden.

The meaning of the first part of the sentence is negated in the German translation; it should instead be "Wenn du deine E-Mail-Adresse nicht öffentlich machen möchtest ..." (emphasis added)
