Start git svn clone at specific revision for cloning subprojects in large svn repositories?

I would like to git svn clone subprojects from a large community subversion repository (plone collective).

The repository is currently at 74K commits, but subprojects of interest are typically much more recent, and their initial import revision is known.

I would like to avoid a) unnecessary traffic to the svn server and b) the very long delay in git svn cloning these subprojects.

Is there a way to specfiy a starting revision to git svn clone?
Thanks.
