Well, if you are distributing something (even just locally), then
preferrably you make proper Cygwin packages and you will never have to
deal with rebase yourself.
The options you allude to above are meant for cases where that just
isn't possible and so you install things without using setup and often
also outside the Cygwin install (permanently, not temporarily until it
gets packaged). You still need to run setup after each change so
autorebase can pick up on it.
