I don't think the pure size of the changeset is a problem here. Our largest 
changesets are the translation merges and the diff is easily beyond some MB, 
but your revision here isn't a problem of size.

However, I've noticed before some problems when trying to import the SVN 
history into some other VCS like git if and only if the SVN commit was only 
doing some svn:eol-style property changes. In some conversions svn -> git I 
rather skipped those single commits, because in git due to its config setting 
I didn't need the eol-style property anyway. Maybe this is the source of the 
problem here.
