There are several posts out there detailing this issue, for which Smartsheet has provided nothing in the way of a solution. Sharing a few for details:
I have submitted multiple cases on this myself.
"Merge saves" frequently revert many of the changes that I, as an admin, make to the structure of my sheets. This is a mockery of the supposedly collaborative nature of smartsheets.

This creates confusion for users and significant overhead for admins, especially in large or regulated environments. There is currently no native way to automatically identify, notify…
