I then thought the auto-installer would take care of the rest. I am re-reading the instructions and it still reads that way for me.
By general process of working with the template *override* system, files generally should only exist in a template override folder if they are different (customized) than the default version of the file with the same name in the zc "core" area (template_default or each of the overrideable directories in the includes folder, etc.) so while *you* may not have written the code, the fact that such a file exists is a customization that has been "done" by you, by your direction (someone else), or by someone else before you were presented this store.

So, with that in mind, it would be advisable to merge the existing files with the IH4 so that when IH4 installs only the specific IH4 related code is "added" to your store.

Lastly, now that the above has been read. My apologies for using the word you so much. Was kind of to drive a point not to point fingers.
