@rekado please take a look at this. We'd previously argued about this on #76 and #80, and this remains an open issue. I still think that removing these files is the correct thing to do.
I agree with removing these files.
When one follows the build instructions, and performs
autoreconf -vif
, these two files are always clobbered with a different version. That is, they are auto-generated. The clobbered version always shows up during agit diff
, and always requires a tediousgit checkout
to avoid accidentally incorporating the wrong versiion of these files into any/everygit commit
. It just makesgit commit
unpleasant and tedious.Meanwhile, these files do not appear to provide any utility to any off-the-street user, since .. they are autogenerated, anyway. So just remove them.
