Looking for SCM that lets me publish part of a repository

Dear GIT people,

For the last week or so, I have been looking for a SCM system to hold many of my projects, some of which are available to the public and others of which are not. It would be nice if I could use a single large private repository on my computer with each project in a separate folder. Then I would like to pull some of the projects (but not all) into a world-readable repository on my Web site. I have looked at several SCMs and have not found a way to make any of them do this, but I like GIT best on other grounds. Is there a way I can coerce GIT to clone and pull one folder out of a repository but ignore the rest?
