user-manual: more explanation of push and pull usage
Recently a user on the mailing list complained that they'd read the
manual but couldn't figure out how to keep a couple private repositories
in sync. They'd tried using push, and were surprised by the effect.
Add a little text in an attempt to make it clear that:
- Pushing to a branch that is checked out will have odd results.
- It's OK to synchronize just using pull if that's simpler.
