Including autoconf outputs servers to avoid having to have autoconf installed. Because autoconf installs historically lagged behind what autoconf-using projects wanted, this used to be a problem. Nowadays it's not that big a deal. As u/nrabulinski says, you can have the CI system generate and commit (with signed commits) autoconf artifacts. |

The same can be said about autotools itself :/
Historical and current use indeed vary, and many times even using autotools itself isn't as appropriate.
