[PATCH v18 08/48] refs.c: add an err argument to repack_without_refs

Update repack_without_refs to take an err argument and update it if there is a failure. Pass the err variable from ref_transaction_commit to this function so that callers can print a meaningful error message if _commit fails due to this function.
