The typical reason for the 413 status is because the httpd is configured
to limit the size of the response body, and the DAV response is
exceeding that.  In those cases, the fix is to change the httpd's
configuration to allow larger responses.

This is not the situation that you seem to be encountering, while it is
what most of the 413 status chatter on sites like stackoverflow are
discussing.

Yes, I wanted access to a reproduction environment.  How do you expect
someone to confirm/diagnose the problem if they don't have a way to
actually debug the scenario?

You filed the bug as "grave".  The definition of grave in our reporting
system is[0]:

  makes the package in question unusable or mostly so, or causes data
  loss, or introduces a security hole allowing access to the accounts of
  users who use the package.

That does not describe your bug.  It is at most important since it
requires the user to be interacting with a broken proxy and it has a
simple workaround.

You have no idea how frequently I use Subversion, and it's not
particularly relevant.  What's relevant is the specific environment in
which _you_ are using Subversion.

Yelling at and insulting the person that's trying to understand the
problem you're encountering is also a good way to get someone to not
care about your problems.  I don't get paid to help you and even if I
did, I wouldn't tolerate this.

If you don't want to help me get enough information to try and find a
solution to the problem, then don't file a bug in the first place.
