Although you've described in detail what you did, it isn't clear to me what the problem is...

That looks like what you want. Isn't it?
With that config, I would expect:
git svn fetch pull updates for trunk and all branches and tags from the svn server.
git checkout -b trunk remotes/git-svn checkout the current trunk
git svn rebase fetch and rebase trunk or current branch. git svn should determine the right git branch from refs/remotes to rebase against.
Does that help any?
