I could proofread the changed part and apply corrections myself or contact the translator right away. It was also a good means to prevent destructive changes, in case of.

This is handled by Transifex.net. But you need to
* watch the file (upper right on the translation details window)
* change your account settings to send an email when there is an update.

I don't know if there is a diff, not sure at all.
But in the old process, while you were able to read the diff, the push
was already done.
