I'm an autotools newbie. I've setup Automake, etc and tested it on a fresh machine.

To get everything working I had to keep a bunch of unwanted files around, as well as other artifacts that could be hidden.

I need help with cleaning this up, or advise on best practices.

Unwanted:

AUTHORS
ChangeLog - Maybe we should keep
NEWS
README - We already have README.md

Artifacts we should hide?

m4
aclocal.m4
config.guess
config.sub
depcomp
install-sh
ltmain.sh
missing

Also, the build requires aclocal to run, so I've added automake as a Requirement. Am I doing something wrong to cause that?
