can someone explain "nulls" to me?

I have a large database and within it is my family tree so not all are
connected to it

In the past I have simply added, linked or merged folks as needed then
exported my line into a new Legacy file.

The last time I did this and then ran a Check/Repair I got a large log and
the message "fixing all nulls" or such

>From the log it looked like it had some to do with a child and parent but
no further explanation.

Since this had never happened before in all the years of the same
procedure, I wonder what's up.

I do this nearly every month and the previous version or file was about
27,000 KB larger despite the latest file containing 186 more individuals
and their data.

I am worried something may not be right.

Can anyone explain or expound?
