If the commit fails, then there should always be an error. The documentation
for svn_fs_txn_commit() and svn_repos_fs_txn_commit() isn't too clear on this,
so I'll add a note. But all the unit tests I added assert on this.

BTW, if the commit failed, then the checks that I added for SVN_NO_ERROR were
defensive to prevent core dumps because some code was dereferencing the error.

Yes, this goes to the other thread about the API changes we're discussing.

Again, this case shouldn't ever happen, but I coded against it anyway.
