This is indeed annoying when you add strings to an existing translations, because it generates a huge diff, and subsequent merges naturally produce many more conflicts than they ought to.

Title:
  Translations export has no fixed order

Status in OpenERP Server:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  1- export a .po using the Administration > Translations > Import/Export, export a file for a module,
  2- add some fields on any object of the module:
  'test_translation': fields.boolean('Test translation'),
  'test_translation2': fields.boolean('Test translation2'),
  for example
  3- reexport the .po exported in step 1

  You will get 2 files containing the same data (with the exception of
  the new fields to translate) BUT in a totally different order making
  the difference between this two files enormous while just one line
  should have changed...

  This is only because of the use of dictionnary in the export function
  and the fact that dictionnaries' keys are not sorted in python:

  changing only some lines from:
  for src, row in grouped_rows.items():
  to:
  for src in sorted(grouped_rows):
      row = grouped_rows[src]

  makes sure the translation are always exported in the same order
  making the historization of the translations way easier/clearer.
