Uploading custom project homepage to Srouceforge

It took me a while to find the latest instructions on how to upload my own webpage for my project in Sourcefoge. I have shamelessly copied the instructions below for posterity.

For managing Project Web space

Project web Hostname: web.sourceforge.net
Path: htdocs/
Username: Combine your SourceForge.net Username with your SourceForge.net project UNIX name using a comma ( "," ) See Example
Password: Your SourceForge.net Password
An example session might look like the following for Username "jsmith" uploading a file for his project with a UNIX name of "fooproject":
[jsmith@linux ~]$ sftp jsmith,fooproject@web.sourceforge.net
Connecting to web.sourceforge.net...
The authenticity of host 'web.sourceforge.net (216.34.181.57)' can't be established.
RSA key fingerprint is 68:b3:26:02:a0:07:e4:78:d4:ec:7f:2f:6a:4d:32:c5.
Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)? yes
Warning: Permanently added 'web.sourceforge.net,216.34.181.57' (RSA) to the list of known hosts.
jsmith,fooproject@web.sourceforge.net's password:
sftp> cd htdocs
sftp> put index.html
Uploading index.html to /home/groups/f/fo/fooproject/htdocs/index.html
index.html                                                                                       100%  241     0.2KB/s   00:01
