Updating .po templates by hand will cause irrelevant conflicts since .pot file includes information of creation time. For example, two translators runs make docs-l10n in their own working tree, and then conflicts may occur even if the content of base (English) document is the same.
IMHO it's better to update automatically once a day/week/month or so, or when every commit changing docs/*.md is merged (always up-to-date, but maybe verbose when you read git log). It may also help non-translator documentation writers.
