In the OAuth authentication you get the display name and ID of the OSM user, 
you can then use that OSM ID to mark the users contributions in your own db.

Not necessarily, the API calls
user/details 
(https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/API_v0.6#Details_of_the_logged-in_user 
) 
and
user/preferences 
(https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/API_v0.6#Preferences_of_the_logged-in_user 
)
 are used by some services to provide login and user organisation.
