I suggest the following procedure when you have made any change:
(1) If it is significant to the general world, add an entry in the
debian/changelog file.
(2) cd to the top directory of the checked-out tetex-* tree (either
tetex-bin or tetex-base as appropriate)
(3) Then do a cvs commit:
(a) If you have added an entry to debian/changelog, you can use
that as the commit message
(b) If not, use an appropriate message, even really simple, like
"Fixed a bug in texmf.d handling"
You can use the -m "text of commit message" option to cvs commit
to do this.
Note that step (2) means that your cvs commit will check in your
changes to the *whole* of the tree, not just the directory you are
currently working in.

Great! (And "download" means cvs checkout, I presume.)

Yes.

OK! My primary problem is bandwidth, which makes uploading tetex-bin
rather difficult.

OK!
