What I do is specify multiple .osm files on the mkgmap command line. When I have one .osm file, I'll specify it twice on the command line. I'd like to see if what I do is what others do.
I have found that the .osm files exported by JOSM are significantly different than those exported by Merkaartor once converted to Garmin tdb/img. I haven't come across an explanation why, yet.
