What is the expected behavior?

Correct german date format in german locale. (dd.MM.yyyy)

Correct date format :-)

Which versions of Angular, Material, OS, TypeScript, browsers are affected?

Is there anything else we should know?

I've opened an issue at the angular repo as the date pipe has the same bug:
angular/angular#16838

This is a limitation of the native JS Date object which is used by the NatvieDateAdapter. In the future material will provide other date adapters that can handle parse formats out of the box, in the mean time you can write your own custom adapter. This is all explained here: https://github.com/angular/material2/blob/master/src/lib/datepicker/datepicker.md
