Commit failed (details follow): Entry for '/Users/user1/Development/Source code/Working Copy/Sample Project/.git' has no URL

You need to remove a file/directory using the svn command, not manually delete it first.

So revert your working copy first using svn update and then use svn rm .git to properly remove the .git directory.

Next you can commit your changes.
