cmake would be the preferred choice, but if not possible autotools will do. Of course it will require more cmake conversion time later, but better an app with autotools than no app at all. Just my 2 cents.

First, I agree that it is better to have an application with autotools, than not having application.
Second, because the integration of applications into GIT always start incorporating original source code, converting to cmake will always be a subsequent patch. So it's just a matter of how long after the initial integration application into GIT will be pushed patch to convert to cmake.
