Just remove these files from-under version control. These files are
generated by configure.
include/libxml/xmlversion.h -- generated from include/libxml/xmlversion.h.in
python/setup.py -- python/setup.py.in
COPYING -- on systems that supports symlinks is not a file at all,
but symlink to Copyright
libxml2.spec -- generated from libxml.spec.in
config.h.in -- it's another case. It generated by autoheader by scanning
configure.in, but I have no idea why it modified by regular configure
operations (rebuilding of configure & Co isn't counted).
May be you have meant config.h, not config.h.in?
