When uploading pootle works like this:
- It compares the file name of the file, that you are uploading with the files 
that he has on the server (including paths)
- then depending on you access rights and option choose when you upload the 
file you can:
1. overwrite a file with matching name on the server with your file
2. merge matching translation in the file with matching name on the server 
with your file's translations (conflicts will be fuzzy)
3. merge matching translation in the file with matching name on the server 
with your file's translations (new translations and conflicts will be fuzzy) 
4. merge your file and the file on the server with matching name (add new 
msgid strings)

If you want to do this with more files at once, just zip them in one file and 
the server then opens the archive and does the matching of the names of the 
files in the archive.

I personally do not use pootle, because for many years I was working with 
kbabel and now lokalize and I usually do my translations offline (when I am on 
the plane). What I do is I download the zip, unpack in directory on my 
computer, then do the translations. After I am finished, I zip it back and use 
2nd option for upload.
So far works like a charm.... :-)
