Why mark the file as conflicts if you can do better? IMO, in the case
of update, it would work about the same as it would if the file did
not move. If it could contextually merge the incoming changes it
will, if not it will product a conflict.

The difference here is that today we do neither. Your local edits
become unversioned and the new files comes in as the normal state.
