Not sure here.

Do you mean elpa.git should contain

elpa/packages/org-20180430/org.el
elpa/packages/org-20180430/org-table.el

etc.?

Because org-pkg.el is generated by elpa/GNUmakefile, right?

If so, why adding org-loaddefs.el since org-autoloads.el would also be
autogenerated?

And would org-version.el still be required?

Or the package version would just be extracted from the org.el
"Version: 9.1.12" keyword?

If possible, I'd like to not add org-loaddefs.el and org-version.el
and have org-autoloads.el and the package version autogenerated like
for any other package.
