I hear you: I had a brief encounter with Mercurial not that long ago, and there were several things that didn't work the way I expected (or rather: the way I got used to with Git). The subtle and sometimes not-so-subtle differences between the concepts and philosophy of the two systems might very well explain why Git didn't work the way you expected.

However, it's impossible to give any explanation or advice without knowing more about the situation, e.g. at least the exact commands that you run and what they outputted, if you still have them or at least if you can still reproduce the issue. (with potentially sensitive URLs and/or branchnames redacted, if necessary).
