Done for 0.48; thanks for the reminder. Hmm ... looking at http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/quilt.git, the git web interface also offers to download tarballs, and stupid enough they also end up being called quilt-$version.tar.gz. These git snapshots don't contain generated files such as configure, and they are not the releases. This name clash is quite annoying. Maybe renaming the release tags to something like v$version will fix it.
