My recommendations for getting started are near the end of the release
announcement:
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-announce/2013-06/msg00030.html
I recommend *not* updating CTAN packages between releases of TeX Live
unless there is a bug that's impeding your work or a new feature that
you need. If that happens, you can send email to the cygwin list and
I'll either update the corresponding texlive-collection-* package or
give you further instructions.
Thanks for the information, appreciate it. From the mail link above
Standard: Install texlive-collection-latexrecommended and its
dependencies
If I choose the above package, then setup will automagically recommend
the dependencies before it starts, right?
Yes.
And is there a bit of documentation on the groupings of the files
i.e. what's in each group of the cygwin texlive* groups?
They correspond precisely to the upstream TeX Live collections.
Download the file
http://mirror.ctan.org/systems/texlive/tlnet/tlpkg/texlive.tlpdb
and search for lines of the form "name collection-*" or "category
Collection".
