You manage the manual install by using tlmgr to add/remove/update
collections or individual CTAN packages whenever you want. The distro
install is not intended to be used with tlmgr. It provides one package
for each TeX Live collection, which will be updated periodically (by
me). You could probably figure out how to make the Cygwin install use
some of the files from your manual install by setting TEXINPUTS
appropriately. See
http://tug.org/pipermail/tex-live/2012-February/031126.html
for some hints.
