Not really.  I just looked at a branch called "german" in my repository
and it actually contains only a single paragraph change in
Documentation/de/essay/engraving.itely:

-Dieser Aufsatz beschreibt, wie LilyPond entstand und wie es
-benutzt werden kann, um schönen Notensatz zu erstellen.
+Dieser Artikel behandelt die Hintergründe zu LilyPonds Entstehung
+und die für seine hohe Notensatzqualität verantwortlichen
+Methoden.

So it would appear that I decided to run out of steam on that task very
early...
