Found the following executable file(s):

Okay, that helps. I don't think the problem is git versus svn, it's
that you've got executable files in a directory where check shouldn't be
looking. I don't think .Rbuildignore would help you.
I'll pass this on as a bug...

I notice that R CMD check has no problem with .svn directories,
but it
dislikes .git directories. That seems a bit of a problem, for
folks like me
who sometimes use git. Perhaps this behaviour could be changed?
According to the R Extensions manual, it excludes dirs named
CVS, .svn, .arch-ids, .bzr, and git. Is .git the right thing to
exclude instead of git, or are both possible?
Actually, that looks like a typo in the manual: the code
excludes .git, not git. I'll fix the typo, but it means I don't
know what error you're talking about. Could you post instructions
for reproducing?

The same section points out the workaround: use the .Rbuildignore
file to say what isn't really part of your package.
