Well -- all my experience with SVN has been when using it with
svnimport ;-) and trying again and again.

>From looking at this url
http://spring-rich-c.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/spring-rich-c/ I
suspect that you might want to invoke it like

git-svnimport -T trunk -t tags -b branches
http://spring-rich-c.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/spring-rich-c/

(note the shorter url).

If that works but leaves the main project in a subdirectory, but the
trees in branches and tags without the subdirectory, you might want to
try:

git-svnimport -T trunk/spring-richclient -t tags -b branches
http://spring-rich-c.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/spring-rich-c/

It might take a couple of tries. NOTE: you should check not only the
main dev track but also the branches and tags for sanity.

cheers
