This patch is relatively simple, and I'll post it in a moment.

I also made a few other cleanups to commit() which apply on top of that;

Some of the globals actually get modified in commit() (e.g., @old and
@new get cleared).  So we need to either pass them in as references or
remember to do that cleanup each time it is called (which is really only
twice, I think).
