The cron job will synchronise the mirror with the changes made on the GH
repository. Just note that to release a package, you'll have to bump
the version tag (any commit changing the line with the version number
should do).
Note (mostly for future search results): "version tag" in this context means "the line
in the file that looks something like ";; Version: 0.4", rather than anything having to
do with git tags. (This sometimes confuses people who are/were familiar with, for
example, Melpa Stable.)
Hope that helps,
