The sync has died.  Stuck on this error:

svnsync: At least one property change failed; repository is unchanged
svnsync: Server sent unexpected return value (413 Request Entity Too
Large) in response to PROPPATCH request for
'/a/apache-extras.org/ooo-legacy-svn/!svn/wbl/c7796956-b4eb-495d-88e0-d1d07d116ca0/49547'

The next revision has a huge memo, over 1MB long:

svn log -r 49548 http://svn.services.openoffice.org/ooo/

I wonder if that is the problem.

I can't fix this on my end, at least not that I can see.  I need
someone who can change the memo for revision 49548 in the legacy SVN.
