You might be looking for autoconf/automake (although it's a bit rusty,
and quite a few people loathe it, it's one working current standard we
have).
Autoconf and automake manuals will probably tell you a lot about these
things. Basically you make Makefile.am and configure.ac files, which
will let you do
make dist
to create your .tar.gz distribution, which is in turn used as upstream
source tarball for every distribution.
