The use of autotools in pacman is interesting... We commit most autotools generated files, but not configure or Makefile. One reason for this is that we needed to patch ltmain.sh to properly handle -Wl,-as-needed, because the Arch package maintainer refused to do so unless upstream accepts! Libtool upstream have known about the bug since at least 2006, so that does not look hopeful.
The new approach is to have autogen.sh call autoreconf and then have it patch the ltmain.sh file. This removes a lot of crap that should be autogenerated from our git repo: 38 files changed, 83 insertions(+), 28256 deletions(-)

From man git format-patch, so it fits under the limits next time, you might want to send it with this:
-D, --irreversible-delete Omit the preimage for deletes, i.e. print only the header but not the diff between the preimage and /dev/null. The resulting patch is not meant to be applied with patch nor git apply; this is solely for people who want to just concentrate on reviewing the text after the change. In addition, the output obviously lack enough information to apply such a patch in reverse, even manually, hence the name of the option. When used together with -B, omit also the preimage in the deletion part of a delete/create pair.
