It works the same way in Orion. Doing a Git merge will attempt to auto-merge. If this fails you will get files with >>> markers showing you the conflicting areas. Conflicting files show up in the git status page in an unstaged state with a red bidirectional arrows next to them. Non-conflicting files will appear as staged. The conflicts need to be resolved by hand and then staged/committed. From your confusion I take it that this didn't happen for you, so maybe you've hit a bug. I suggest entering a bug with any details you can give... screen shots, etc.
