Could be clock skew.

If the time of the last commit is in the future then that is causing the
problem. If this says that the log is empty you can safely reinitialize
it. Otherwise you'd have to bump your system time to beyond the time of
the last commit, use rvmutl to recover/replay the logged operations, set
the clock back to current time and reintialize the log.

Reinitialization is something like the following,

    $ rvmutl
    > i /path/to/rvm/log 20M
