Another possiblity is to tell all your external contributors to send in
only patches, never the complete source file. I would suggest the
unified diff format ("-u").

You would have to patch these diff files into your working copies.
Furthermore, it is not you who must determine the version the external
contributor used, but the contributor himself has to find this out.

Regards,
   Spiro.
