Oh, okay. But the same applies to all the other contents of the noderev
structure :-), doesn't it? I know I'm probably just being picky -
I'll make the change myself if you've no objections.

Sorry I wasn't clear. We're relying on a certain behaviour from
svn_fs_node_created_rev() that's not well documented, specifically that
it returns a real revision when called on the root of an unmodified
transaction. I was thinking that we should document that in the
doc-comments for that function.
