One solution to this is to designate one PC as the central repository,
and only sync other PCs to that one, not to each other.

Why do you want to do this? I don't see how it is related to keeping
things in sync.

One solution is to use different author names and/or keys on each PC.

Use the 'cert' command; you can add arbitrary certs. 

If you want to automate setting that cert as part of the sync process,
there are sync related Lua hooks; see the monotone manual, or
std_hooks.lua; note_netsync_end would be a good place.

But I'm still not clear why you want to do this.
