Correction: You *cloned* the repository. This is no mere terminology  
difference. The result is not merely a means to access the repository  
on the web server; it's a separate repository with its own history and  
its own configuration.

Presumably, you then checked out (updated) your *local* repository, as  
the clone command does this for you by default. You didn't check out  
(update) the repo on the web server unless you SSH'd in and ran the  
`hg up` command there; even if you did, the resulting working copy  
exists on the web server, not on any other machine.

This is not surprising, as these are all local operations. Remember,  
this is a completely separate repository that exists entirely on your  
own machine. They don't affect any other repository (including the one  
on the web server) until you push or pull to that repository.
