I have a slightly different layout to you -

projectA/trunk
projectA/branches
projectA/tags
projectB/trunk
projectB/branches
projectB/tags
etc

- but I've been creating separate git repos from that with (for  
example) :

git-svn init -t tags -b branches -T trunk http://svn.host.com/projectA
git-svn fetch


Or will git-svn not work with your sort of layout?
