You cannot push using the http protocol (because we can't authenticate 
you using an ssh key over that protocol).

So, you need to use the URL form outlined in [1] to push.

Either by explicitly specifying the URL when pushing as shown there, or 
configuring that with 'git remote set-url --push origin 
cygwin@cygwin.com:/git/cygwin-packages/astyle'

Yes, please remove no longer relevant files.

No, you don't need to do that, 'cygport up' does that for you.

The "manual" steps mentioned in [2] are just documentation for what's 
going on under the hood here.

'calm will scan the upload directories for packages that are ready, 
verify them, and, if there are no errors, move the packages into the 
real release area' is on that page.

But yeah, probably could be clearer.

That is correct.

Yup. Thanks.

Please ask here if you have any problems.
