Wait for her to come to the UK and start exercising Tretay rights, get married, then apply for Residence card.

She is coming in March to UK with her family and then we will get married. Only problem i have is that my student visa is going to expire in august so whats to know if she really has to exercise Treaty Rights for me to apply for spouse visa as she is german national ? Somebody told me that nationals of some countries don't need to exercise treaty rights for their family member to apply for family visa, is germany one of them ?
Also can you please advise the procedure to exercise treaty rights ?
