if you are going to use a tool, you should learn about the tool.... the
documentation is very good.
Patrick is right, it's in the documentation.

Once an image has been imported into darktable the database entries
take precedence over the XMP file. Subsequent changes to the XMP file
by any other software are not visible to darktable – any changes get
overwritten the next time darktable synchronizes the file. This
behavior can be changed in the preferences dialog (see Section 8.2,
“Core options”
<https://www.darktable.org/usermanual/ch08s02.html.php>). On request
darktable looks for updated XMP files at startup and offers a choice
whether to update the database or overwrite the XMP file.

Check file modification times of all XMP files on startup to find out
if any got updated in the meantime by some other software. If updated
XMP files are found a menu opens for the user to decide which of the
XMP files to be reloaded – replacing darktable's database entries by
the XMP file contents – and which of the XMP files to be overwritten
by darktable's database. Activating this option also causes darktable
to check for text sidecar files that have been added after import
time – see option “overlay txt sidecar over zoomed images” in
Section 8.1, “GUI options”

(default off).
