Many HTTP proxy servers only allow the 'common' HTTP methods and
will have problems with some of the WebDAV methods that subversion
uses.
The most likely ones to cause problems (according to the subversion
FAQ) are PROPFIND, REPORT, MERGE, MKACTIVITY and CHECKOUT. Some of
those may only be needed to commit things though.
Recent versions of squid allow PROPFIND by default but older ones
don't, and even recent ones don't allow the others unless they are
told to with the extension_methods configuration option.
