What are the differences between the two e-mail templates "project schedule change" and "Task dependency affected by project rollup"?

What kind of project link is meant in the notification descriptions below, and what are the differences between the two templates:

1- Notification: project schedule change: Notifies the project manager if any changes were made to their records as a result of project linking, or when a linked project affects their project


2- Task dependency affected by project rollup: Notifies project managers and project plan editors that a task dependency has been affected by a project rollup


1- When a task from one project is linked to a task under another project, depending on the type of this task dependency (e.g. Finish-to-Start), a change in one task would impact another. This may happen when the finish date of a predecessor task changes, for example.

2- Similar to the previous one, but triggered by the rollup, and triggered only if the “Roll up planned information from subprojects to parent task” option is selected on the project.
