Actually, the old code used to use commit unchecked if e->item->type said it is OBJ_COMMIT but e->item was somehow NULL. The new code checks this case and skips with a warning(), which I think is an improvement, if not a bugfix (it only makes it easier to diagnose a bug in the code that populates rev_cmdline_entry).

Thanks; will queue.
