I add an err argument in the next series. I would prefer we let that
patch remain in the next series to
avoid unbounded growth of the current one.
Ok ?

I think it is more flexible to allow the caller to manage the lifetime
of the error buffer independently of the transaction.
It would allow a caller to free the transaction early but delay
printing the error message until later.
Or it could be used for a multi transaction caller to use a single err
buffer for all transactions and finally print
all errors in a single error() call at the end.
struct strbuf err = STRBUF_INIT;
... first transaction (... &err)...
... second transaction (... &err)...
... third transaction (... &err)...
error("%s", err.buf);
Similar to how rsync handles errors:
sahlberg@sahlberg1:~$ mkdir foo
sahlberg@sahlberg1:~$ touch foo/foo.1
sahlberg@sahlberg1:~$ touch foo/foo.2
sahlberg@sahlberg1:~$ mkdir bar
sahlberg@sahlberg1:~$ chmod 0500 bar
sahlberg@sahlberg1:~$ rsync -Pav foo/* bar
sending incremental file list
