That's because you have the .Rhistory file under version control. The
svn:ignore property just suppresses the notice ("? filename") about
files that are not in the repository but only in your working copy.
Do a "svn remove .Rhistory" and svn will leave that file alone.

I can't see the reason for the failed commit, though. I'll try to
reproduce it tonight.
