Remove results of .tmpl templates?

[joewiz]

I noticed that repo.xml and expath-pkg.xml are stored in the repo. Since they are generated by the grunt default task, should they be removed?

Perhaps one reason for overriding the template file was that you wanted multiple authors to be listed? The package.json file does limit you to a single author, but it allows multiple contributors and can even read from an AUTHORS file. See https://github.com/npm/npm/blob/master/doc/files/package.json.md#people-fields-author-contributors and the bit on the AUTHORS file at https://github.com/npm/npm/blob/master/doc/files/package.json.md#default-values. These might help.

It just occurred to me that a related change would be to add the the .xml versions of these (and perhaps other compiled files) to the .gitignore file.

Perhaps @JoernT, who has created the installer, has a comment?
