From: Johannes Schindelin <redacted>

In `fsck_commit()`, after counting the authors of a commit, we set the
`err` variable either when there was no author, or when there were more
than two authors recorded. Then we access the `err` variable to figure
out whether we should return early. But if there was exactly one author,
that variable is still uninitialized.

Let's just initialize the variable.

This issue was pointed out by CodeQL.
