I had a look at this earlier as well, and (in defense of the
developer) it seems to be only changes in the source code, not actual
string changes. If translatable strings are moved around in the source
code, the order of messages in the POT might also change, making the
'diff' hard to read. Ideally, we should perhaps ask developers not to
commit regenerated POT files after string-freeze, unless they have got
a +1 on a string-freeze break?
Well, I should have looked closer (or after some sleep as glezos just did), there is
indeed some added strings there.
