I am having trouble uploading a package. Why is this?

Code:

$ python setup.py register sdist upload
running register
running egg_info
writing markdowntable.egg-info\PKG-INFO
writing dependency_links to markdowntable.egg-info\dependency_links.txt
writing top-level names to markdowntable.egg-info\top_level.txt
reading manifest file 'markdowntable.egg-info\SOURCES.txt'
writing manifest file 'markdowntable.egg-info\SOURCES.txt'
running check

see the tutorial at https://packaging.python.org/tutorials/distributing-packages/#create-an-account (specifically the note about .pypirc)

Unfortunately, that link only covers uploading to TestPyPi, not PyPi and makes no mention of .pypirc
