In similar situations, the only way I have discovered is to drop the
conflicting file from the target of the propagate. Then the propagate
will restore it.

I hope there is a better way. 

I'd like to change monotone to offer to merge the conflicting files;
that would clearly work in this case, and is The Right Thing in the
cases I have run into as well. 

My most common case is when I write a small file on one machine,
forget to check it in, and then write the same small file on another
machine. When I finally get both checked in, I get a non-content
conflict.
