+
+### svn: E175012: Connection timed out
+
+This issue occurs on the client's (your) side when the server (wordpress.org) takes a very long time to process the input.
+
+Usually, it happens only with large plugins that contain hundreds of files. For example, contributors to the Gutenberg plugin (which is a part of WordPress but is also available as a plugin) [have faced](https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/55295) this issue.
+
+To solve this problem, you need to add a special timeout-increasing option to the commit command:
+
+```
+svn ci -m "new version" --config-option=servers:global:http-timeout=900
+```
+
+In this command, 900 is the number of seconds. Using this trick, you'll be able to bypass the timeout issue.

 ## Notes
 
 Don't put anything in SVN that you're not willing and prepared to have deployed to everyone who uses your plugin. This _includes_ vendor files, `.gitignore` and everything else.
