"repos" == "checkout" in my message.

So the hg up -C solved my problem, but I'm still a bit confused
(nothing new, in addition to which I only use hg for my Python
repositories)... Why didn't a plain "hg up" tell me it couldn't update
some files because of changes? Or, like git (I think), attempt to
incorporate the upstream changes, then leave conflict markers if that
failed?
