See issue #125013 for background. Since pulling and merging is a basic part of Hg workflow, needed whenever you want to push and someone else has gotten there first, I suggest supporting the Fetch extension or its equivalent, either as 1. A menu item Fetch running 'hg fetch'. Safest, since the logic is a tested part of Hg itself. 2. A dialog displayed after pulling creates new local heads prompting you to merge. (If no new heads created, update.)
