   automake.  See info Automake Gnits.

I must be missing something utterly obvious, but I cannot find it at
all:

~/s $ /bin/grep -ir "follow Gnits" autoconf automake gnulib sharutils
~/s $

   I'd need to see the configure.ac in order to confirm.

configure.ac:
| m4_include([version.m4])
| AC_INIT([GNU sharutils],[sharutils_version],[sharutils_eaddr])

version.m4:
| m4_define([sharutils_version], [4.7.1])
| m4_define([sharutils_eaddr],   [bug-gnu-ut...@gnu.org])
