a) yes
b) very top of test-lily/upload.py.  "maintainer" refers to the
interaction with lilypond git repo.  It would be nice if this was
configurable somewhere other than editing the source code (i.e.
local.make, an environmental variable, whatever).
c) in lilypond git, type "git tag".  Those show the exact commit
hashes of every release we have; this makes it easier to do things
like a git bisect of all changes between 2.15.36 and 2.15.37 to
find out when a particular bug was introduced.
