Import them separately to different git-svn remotes, and once they are 
in the same repository you can graft them together using 
.git/info/grafts (see man gitrepository-layout).  Once it looks right 
(check using 'gitk' etc), make it permanent using git filter-branch. 
You'll also want to remove the .git/svn directory, and re–run 'git svn 
fetch' so that git svn's revision database is recomputed.  Don't forget 
the -A option to 'git svn fetch'!

Good luck,
Sam
