Dry running can mean many different things, can the readme and help output be updated to explain what dryrun means for this tool? (e.g. do things like git push work? if not, which things don't work, etc)

Especially for actions that send resultant data off for hosting/further external processing, it's pretty important to know whether or not there is a way to prevent act from allowing that to happen.

This is still a problem. What dryrun means? I just get a bunch of errors...

Dry run will not create any containers so it will validate only workflow correctness.

If that is the true and correct information, I would like to reiterate my request to update the README.md and act --help output with that information, to prevent future uncertainty.

The `dryrun` paramater's documentation is unhelpful (`dryrun mode`).

In the absense of proper documentation, [this definition from a comment on this topic](#268 (comment)) should be used.
