Another thing which helps avoid conflicts in the first place is when
you are tracing roads, make sure you put a node at __every__
interesection the road is going to connect to in the future, even if
that other road isn't already in the database yet.  That way, later
on, when someone traces in that road, they can connect to your road
without modifying it since there is already a node at the intersection
for them to connect to.  This means that the road gets created nearly
complete in version 1 and the only future changes to it will be minor
corrections or changes to the tags; but you don't get 100 different
versions, each with just one new node where someone connected a cross
road.
