 I recently figured out that there is a report command in cabal and it
 reports the reports generated by --build-reports option when building a
 package.
 
 Is this because I don't have an account on Hackage yet, or because of
 some other reasons?

It's a feature that exists in the client that has no corresponding
implementation on the server-side yet. There is a new hackage-server in
development that can accept build reports uploaded by cabal report.

 And if I make an account, where how I put that information in cabal
 config file?

You only need an account for uploading packages. If you do not want to
have to enter your user name or password interactively when you run
cabal upload then you can put them in the config file:

username:
password:

You can use one field without the other field and cabal upload will
prompt for the one you did not supply. So you don't need to save your
password in the config file.

 I've looked into the cabal config file and tried to change this myself
 before, but it wasn't very self explanatory to me.  For instance, I
 tried to make the build-reports on by default, deleting haskell comment
 like double dashes -- and put True flag after the colon, but keep
 getting parse error from cabal.  I looked up the manual but it says that
 the config file is self explanatory, which isn't to me at all.  Are
 there any documentations on this available anywhere?

There is some problems in the config file parsing code it seems. The
config file parsing code is derived automatically from the command line
parsing code but imperfectly at the moment. For example --build-reports
is a boolean value flag but with no argument and these do not seem to be
converted correctly into config file fields.

Yes. The current hackage server does not support uploading build
reports.
