The po/<activity>.pot file is the one you need to make sure stays in  
sync with your string changes. You can automatically generate this  
with ./setup genpot, but (out of habit) I usually just do that at the  
beginning and manually edit the .pot file after that – as penance for  
messing the translation team about :-) (also some of the projects I've  
worked on have lots of strings we do not need translated and so  
the .pot needs cleaning up).

I try get my strings right as early as possible, before going in to  
Pootle, and then make as few changes as possible (and if so try make  
them all at once). The translation system will pick up the new .pot  
changes, but does trigger some manual steps for Sayamindu (and then  
obviously more work for the actual translators).

Regards,
