Technically the upload part is done by 

https://github.com/t3elmar/Typo3ExtensionUtils

because I didn't want to reinvent the wheel.

It gives back the original response from TER. Although that is a little
cryptic I think it right, to do exactly that. 

An idea would be to evaluate TER response and to return an error
in the shell it the upload faild. That would make it more easy to 
skript the upload. But for doing this I need to learn about the error 
channel of the unix first.

That is by design. I want be able to regenerate my docs between setting
the new version to ext_emconf.php and uploading. 

The version is in full control of the user. The target group of a
command-line tool are experts.

That is in fact a very interesting experience. It means that it is possible
to overwrite broken or dangerous versions with an empty or new extension.

That is something, many people asked for.
