Well, monotone tracks files and directories. Two directories added on
two different revisions (possibly even by two different persons) are two
different directories. If the two happen to claim the same name, that's
a conflict, in monotone.

As I said before, there's no good solution to support "stitching".
That's something that seems to work just fine for other VCSes (which do
not track files and directories directly).

I'm still convinced that monotone's approach has its benefits and it
would be worth implementing proper stitching, but... as a matter of fact
nobody implemented it so far.
