It was

15 * * * * cd /home/james/lilypond-git && python
/home/james/patchy/lilypond-patchy-staging.py

I intended to leave it for a few hours to see if I got the expected behaviour

In the end I hope to use

0 */6 * * * cd /home/james/lilypond-git && python
/home/james/patchy/lilypond-patchy-staging.py
