It means they never happen automatically, added documents wont' be committed 
until you send a commit to solr.

Subject: autocommit commented out -- what is the default?

Hi, if you comment out the block in solrconfig.xml



Does this mean that (a) commits never happen automatically or (b) some
default autocommit is applied?

Commented out means they never happen automatically (i.e., no default).
In general commitWithin is a better strategy to use... bulk updates
can use a large value (or no value w/ explicit commit at end) for
better indexing performance, while other updates can use a smaller
value depending on how soon the update needs to be visible.
