I've surprised myself but yes, there is a simple testcase.

svnadmin create repo svn checkout file://$PWD/repo checkout cd checkout/ svn mkdir trunk tags branches svn ci -m 'Standard svn layout.' cd trunk/ svn mkdir doc touch doc/README svn add doc/README svn ci -m 'Add README.' cd .. svn mv trunk/ branches/oldtrunk svn ci -m 'Moved trunk.' svn mkdir trunk svn ci -m 'New trunk.' cd trunk/ touch THIS_IS_THE_NEW_TRUNK svn add THIS_IS_THE_NEW_TRUNK svn ci -m 'Add marker.' cd ../.. git svn clone file://$PWD/repo --stdlayout git-clone cd git-clone/ tree

So the testcase basically involves moving the trunk. git-svn gets very confused and keeps a mixture of the old and new trunk.
