Summary

This PR clarifies the Docker watcher startup behavior in the README.

Details

The default docker-compose.yml starts the service with -watcher, which also expects a reachable torrent client unless -noseed is used.

Without that clarification, Docker users may see the container restart in a loop on first launch if their torrent client is not yet accessible from the container.

This adds a short note explaining:

  • why that restart loop can happen
  • how to do a first Docker test without a torrent client
  • how to temporarily use -watcher -noseed
