I checked the autotools stuff. There are only a few needed lines left
now, compared to the pile of stuff that was there:
  http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/kay/usbutils.git

If you do not have any uncommited changes, just do a:
  git clean -f -X
  git clean -f -x
delete all the left-over untracked directories and you get a clean
repo, and all the autotools stuff you create only once with:
  autoreconf -i -s
and it will add all the auto crap you really don't want to track in
the repository. :)

What's with the usbmodules.* stuff in the repo? It does not get
compiled by the Makefile, and does not compile for me. I guess it can
be deleted?

Thanks,
Kay
