If by wrong you mean not looking beyond the end of your nose, then
yeah.

Thanks for the pointer! hg pull --rebase is exactly what I searched for.
It is not obvious that you have to activate basic commands in a FOSS
application you installed. Once you know that, the list of such
extensions is only one click away.

P.S. Niels has actually had the opportunity to see my nose; sorry for
not reading this earlier, I spent the evening bootstrapping Mono on
Haiku.
If anything, this proves my point of having followed the wrong
tutorial and shows hg is not well documented. I still haven't found a
proper command reference, and I had already looked at both the
documentation section and into the book. Git is slightly better in
that aspect but all three could use some more love helping people do
what they need to do and skip the recurring 'create a new repo, add a
file, commit it' nonsense.
