    Description

      We have the following situation.

      Step 1

      First run of lupdate created the following ts files

      English version

      <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
      <!DOCTYPE TS>
      <TS version="2.1" language="en_US">
      <context>
          <name>Widget</name>
          <message>
              <location filename="Widget.ui" line="13"/>
              <source>Widget</source>
              <translation type="unfinished"></translation>
          </message>
          <message>
              <location filename="Widget.cpp" line="9"/>
              <source>Support in y-axis</source>
              <translation type="unfinished"></translation>
          </message>
          <message>
              <location filename="Widget.cpp" line="9"/>
              <source>Support in y/u-axis</source> 
              <translation type="unfinished"></translation>
          </message>
      </context>
      </TS>
      

      French version

      <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
      <!DOCTYPE TS>
      <TS version="2.1" language="fr_FR">
      <context>
          <name>Widget</name>
          <message>
              <location filename="Widget.ui" line="13"/>
              <source>Widget</source>
              <translation type="unfinished"></translation>
          </message>
          <message>
              <location filename="Widget.cpp" line="9"/>
              <source>Support in y-axis</source>
              <translation type="unfinished"></translation>
          </message>
          <message>
              <location filename="Widget.cpp" line="9"/>
              <source>Support in y/u-axis</source>
              <translation type="unfinished"></translation>
          </message>
      </context>
      </TS>

      Step 2

      Delete manually one message from some ts file (for some random reason)

      We obtained the following ts files

      English version

      <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
      <!DOCTYPE TS>
      <TS version="2.1" language="en_US">
      <context>
          <name>Widget</name>
          <message>
              <location filename="Widget.ui" line="13"/>
              <source>Widget</source>
              <translation type="unfinished"></translation>
          </message>
          <message>
              <location filename="Widget.cpp" line="9"/>
              <source>Support in y-axis</source>
              <translation type="unfinished"></translation>
          </message>
          <message>
              <location filename="Widget.cpp" line="9"/>
              <source>Support in y/u-axis</source> 
              <translation type="unfinished"></translation>
          </message>
      </context>
      </TS>

      French version

      <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
      <!DOCTYPE TS>
      <TS version="2.1" language="fr_FR">
      <context>
          <name>Widget</name>
          <message>
              <location filename="Widget.ui" line="13"/>
              <source>Widget</source>
              <translation type="unfinished"></translation>
          </message>
          <message>
              <location filename="Widget.cpp" line="9"/>
              <source>Support in y-axis</source>
              <translation type="unfinished"></translation>
          </message>
      </context>
      </TS>

      Step 3

      Second run of lupdate doesn`t restore (repair) deleted message in French ts file.

      Conclusion

      By my opinion, lupdate should restore deleted messages, if this message not exists in ts file, but exists in source files.
