Don't edit the .mo files directly; edit the .po files and then make .mo
files of them with msgfmt (*nix). It's easy to compare .po files (upstream
with your version) with a good diff-tool since they are in clear text (I
use vimdiff). There are plenty of useful tools in the gettext package.

If you're using Windows I don't know how to do it.

No, there's no override file for your own translations.

Sincerely,

PS. Please consider sending your modifications upstream. Someone else
might find them useful.
