Difference between 6.10 release packages from official website and from this repo #87

Hi, I found that the release package of version 6.10 from official website (https://www.colm.net/open-source/ragel/ ) is different from the package from this Repo tags(https://github.com/adrian-thurston/ragel/releases/tag/ragel-6.10)

User will get confused if they find this, such as me.

PS:

Package from Website Download
Package from This Repo tags Download

Any source tag you download for any C/C++ package from GitHub don't contain configure and other necessary scripts to immediately compile the package after you run configure script. You will first need to use autogen.sh script to generate those script. If you download source tarball from official website they will contain the configure tag. Thus the difference.
