There is a difference between svn file properties and svn revision properties. The file properties are attached to the file and are versioned (i.e. changes to them get committed when you commit). The revision properties are attached to the revision, filled automatically by subversion and are not versioned (i.e. if the admin allows it they can be changed, but then their previous value is lost).
