UserManual: Add disclaimer as to what GitX is

Add a disclaimer about the intended use of GitX. A lot of people seem to
think GitX is a way to make using a complex system easy. Other think
that they can learn git by clicking their way around GitX.

This is the GitX user's manual. In this document, you will be able to read
about everything you need to know on how to use GitX.
about everything you need to know on how to use GitX.
### Disclaimer
GitX aims to be a graphical wrapper around the most-frequently used
git-commands, enabling you to satisfy your daily git needs in one consistent
program. GitX doesn't aspire to be a complete interface for the wide variety of
git command-line programs with their ever-growing number of options. It's also
no easy way to learn git. A sound understanding of how git stores data, how it
works on that data and how to recover from (accidental) deletion of branches
and commits will not only help you with git but will also enable you to learn
GitX with greater confidence and speed.
