It has nothing to do with "larger changes". You can commit all sorts of
things without your project being HEAD. But there are limits:

 * you can't commit a propchange on a non-HEAD directory
 * you can't delete a non-HEAD object
 * you can't change the contents of a file if the repository has a newer
version of the file.

Yes, look in your ~/.subversion/servers file, at the http-timeout
variable.
