Who has to create the git repo?
I would like to push my postfix cygport and patch files.

Your push should do a lazy create of the git repo, and start the

fatal: repository 'http://cygwin.com/git/cygwin-packages/postfix.git/' not found

Nearly, but you need write auth via ssh creds:

        $ eval `ssh-agent`
        $ ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_...         # without .pub
        $ git checkout -b playground    # start in playground
        $ git add postfix.cygport postfix...patch # files referenced
        $ git commit -m ...             # check in
        $ git push ssh://cyg...@cygwin.com/git/cygwin-packages/postfix

Pushes here are only permitted using ssh authorization.
See [1] for an example of the URL and push command.
[1] https://cygwin.com/packaging/repos.html

I never could get that URL style to work with git push - I use the above.
