IDEA 13.x uses a custom wrapper around the svn command-line client to do
version control. Depending on how they do that, and how they manage
paths within the wrapper, I can easily imagine ways to break due to
Windows path size limits; but there are too many moving parts to be sure.

I suggest the best thing to do is to report the bug to IntelliJ, and let
them determine if the bug is in fact in the svn command-line client or
within IDEA or their version control plugin.

Next time that happens, I suggest you retry the commit with the
command-line client. If that succeeds, it will be pretty strong evidence
of a bug in IDEA rather than Subversion.
