I just put a '!ready' file in the unison directory and everything was
transferred.
You need at least one !ready file per architecture so if you put a !ready
at your top level it won't work as expected.
From: https://sourceware.org/cygwin-apps/package-upload.html
Note: !ready files need to be created at least once for each
architecture that is uploaded, i.e., in each of the x86 and x86_64
directories or in the package directories themselves.
upset will periodically scan the upload directories for packages that
are ready, and, if there are no errors, move the packages into the real
release area. New directories in the release area will be created as
needed. If there are errors then setup.ini will not be updated and the
release area will remain pristine.
Note: The upload area is only for new files intended for the Cygwin
release. There is no reason to put older files in the upload
directories since they already exist in the main release.
