u/felixs/autotools is dark red with "failed to determine common ancestor". That shouldn't be a problen, since no existing files are involved.

What will happen with files like spkg-write-makefile? Will they still be part of the new spkg? They should be, because they are required to update the spkg.

Replying to @jdemeyer:

I didn't remove anything. e.g. spkg-write-makefile is still there and that makes sense. I just added the generated makefile, so I can build the package.

... or I didn't understand your question (sorry then).
