hg mercurial - how to merge in 3 way merge window in shell

I have less experience with mercurial. i am having this problem:

I push everytime from my windows pc in tortoiseHG-Workbench to repo. works fine.

I pull to my server from repo with hg pull .... works fine.

then it asks me to run hg update. i will do it. but then it says, there is something to merge in my views.py and automatically opens a 3-way merge window in shell. I am using ssh tunnel - PuTTy.

in this 3way merge window, no hg commands are available. what i always do is: 

> views.py  #emptying the file
then i copy paste the views.py from my local pc to server and save it.

this works. but thru this, there will be always conflict because i am changing the same views.py in both sides. how do i solve this so that i dont have to merge everytime? i desperately need some help!

the problem is, there is no hg commands available in 3-way merge window

If you don't have any differences between your production and development script that should be merged, it is safe to always do update clean with update -C. This will replace all local changes you made with the latest version that you pulled from the repository. So the workflow would be:

hg pull
hg update -C
