Yeah, I've been running into this too. I think we should remove those files
from version control, personally.
I don't care about docs/libvirt-refs.xml, but I would prefer to keep
docs/libvirt-api.xml in the tree for the reasons exposed during the big
reshuffling.
The problem is that now this is systematically rebuilt on make
while it used to be rebuilt only on a specific "make rebuild" target
in doc, this was done for example on "make dist", this is why so many
people start to see diffs.
I would really prefer to go back to the old way of only building it
when needed instead of systematically, this would avoid the problem
most people are facing while still allow me to monitor closely changes
to the generated API.
