The first is for accessing the repo via the git protocol; the other two
are for access via https (one for reading, the other for pushing).
Choose either (I prefer the git protocol).

Yes, you need to manually push to git.php.net.

Yes.

My workflow is:

* download a formatted patch of the PR (e.g.
<https://patch-diff.githubusercontent.com/raw/php/pecl-database-ibm_db2/pull/9.patch>)
* `git am` that patch
* push to the git.php.net repo

To publish a new release, first build the package with `pecl package`
(it will remind you tag), and then upload it via
<https://pecl.php.net/release-upload.php>.

If you have further questions, just ask. :)
