Is this the script we talked about earlier which cleans the submission
from any automake files, or does it do something else?

As already discussed the trees used for development should not contain
automake derived files. Only the release trees.

I propose to clean this up in bzr next week.

I also propose to restructure the bzr branch names a little to separate
release branches from other branches, i.e. creating "stable" and
"releases" subtres in bzr for keeping the stable branches and release
tags.

stable/squid-3.0
stable/squid-3.1 (when it's time)
releases/squid-3.0.STABLE1
releases/squid-3.0.STABLE2
..

with autotool derived files kept only in these, not in trunk or other
non-stable branches.

maybe we should also add a staging/testing hierarchy (also without
derived files) but I'll leave that for later.
