Document why (i.e. "no check target").

yadm has a few things you need to patch.  For one, its shebang is
/bin/sh despite requiring bash.  Also it contains a large number of
_PROGRAM variables, which would be need to be replaced by their actual
store path (use the which procedure for that).

Nice advertisement, but not really a description.  yadm.1 has a better
one, but keep to the formatting in Guix (particularly double spaces
after sentence end).

Should be gpl3+.
