The text on https://cygwin.com/packaging/repos.html is unclear. The
page says that the repo is lazily created on the first push. It should
say that you first clone it with this command:

git clone ssh://[email protected]/git/cygwin-packages/packagename.git

and then do a first push

It shouldn't say that, because it works just as well when doing a git
init locally (or using an existing local repo) and then pushing to the
remote (which you also need to explicitly specify the first time you use
it).  In fact that's the sane way to do it when you already have local
history.

For your packages, please check

https://cygwin.com/cgi-bin2/jobs.cgi

and add the necessary BUILD_REQUIRES to make them build on the CI. It's
recommended to iterate on the playground branch, which you can
force-push to (i.e. you can throw away commits that have not worked out)
and delete if no longer needed after having pushed the cleaned-up
version to the master branch.


Thanks!
This information should be in the Cygwin Package Contributor's Guide.
