making a git-merge-changelog package

[Paolo Bonzini]

I just made this script that prepares a git-merge-changelog tarball.  I 
don't know if it would be useful to have it in a cron job somewhere.  It 
needs git in the path.

#! /bin/sh

mkdir -p git-merge-changelog
cd git-merge-changelog
if test -d gnulib/.git; then
  (cd gnulib && git pull)
else
  git clone git://git.sv.gnu.org/gnulib gnulib
fi

mkdir -p build
cd build
../configure
make distcheck
cp git-merge-changelog-0.0.tar.gz ..
cd ..
rm -rf build
