If I remember correctly everybody agreed that autoconf is least evil of the
whole autotools package. pasky suggested to write ./configure script by
hand on #git...
I'm trying to do inobtrusive _optional_ autoconf support in the patch series
beginning with
Message-ID: <200606290301.51657.jnareb@gmail•com>
http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/22832
Please wait for the patch moving ./autoconf output away from config.mak
(as some people here requested), and do contribute! My autoconf/m4
experience is nonexistent (I'm learning it as I go). See comments in the
third [PATCH/RFC] in series.
BTW. patches are against master.
