Both files appear to have the same Project-Id-Version and 
PO-Revision-Date, having been last updated for 2.14.  The TP does 
automatic merges with a new .pot file; you can always download all the 
files and commit them after the TP processes a new .pot file, if you want 
(that's what I generally do for GCC), but I don't think it really matters 
whether you do so or not.  The TP only sends announcements for individual 
languages when a human translator updates the file, not for the automatic 
merges (it just sends a single message about the new .pot file having been 
processed in that case).
