"hg pull" alone shouldn't change your working directory, maybe
you did a "hg update", too?

Anyway, probably you now have multiple heads in your repository
(check with "hg heads"), and the pulled revision in the working
dir, and you need to merge your changes with the pulled changes
("hg merge" or "hg update -m").
