It's in your tarball, but not in git.

configure is not a source file. If you have autotools you can build a
configure script. Inside the top level source run:

utils/bootstrap

The only thing I put in version control are source files. configure is
built from configure.ac so configure is not a source file.

Makefile.in is built from Makefile.am; then Makefile is built from configure

configure goes into a source tarball with 'make dist'

To clean everything up to source I do this:

make clean
make distclean
wayclean

Here's my wayclean script:

#! /bin/sh

if [[ -a "configure" ]]; then
rm -f configure
rm -f find . -name Makefile.in
rm -f find . -name config.h.in
rm -f find . -name PLATFORM
rm -f find . -name stamp-h.in
rm -fR autom4te.cache
else
echo "Not in a source directory!"
fi

The git repo is source files only. The tarball is a source distribution. I
don't check in files that are generated. You'll have to generate one with
autotools
