Translate English alt text to German in README #105346

Description

@Roshanjossey

🎯 Goal
Translate English alt text to German in the README translation to improve accessibility for German speakers.

🐞 Problem
The German translation has images with English alt text, which makes the content less accessible to German speakers using screen readers and other assistive technologies.

💡 What needs to be done
Translate all English alt text to German in the tutorial images. You can find the file at:
https://github.com/firstcontributions/first-contributions/blob/main/docs/translations/README.de.md

Common English alt text that needs translation:

  • "fork this repository" → translate to German
  • "clone this repository" → translate to German
  • "copy URL to clipboard" → translate to German
  • "git status" → translate to German
  • "create a pull request" → translate to German
  • "submit pull request" → translate to German

Example of what needs to be fixed:

<!-- Current (English alt text) -->
<img align="right" width="300" src="https://firstcontributions.github.io/assets/Readme/fork.png" alt="fork this repository" />

<!-- Should be (translated to German) -->
<img align="right" width="300" src="https://firstcontributions.github.io/assets/Readme/fork.png" alt="[German translation of 'fork this repository']" />
