Hi all,

One of the SVN repositories that I work with (and have a Git version of) has
recently implemented a tag/trunk/branch layout, and I'd like to update my
repository to correctly work with this layout. 

As far as I understand the standard layout for a SVN repo that supports
branching is 

SVR Root ----Trunk - folders/files
 \
  --Branch - folders/files
  \
   -Tag - folders/files

With each of those having the project contents

The SVN repo I am now faced with has the trunk/branch/tag folders on
selected folders in the tree.

Essentially instead of having one project per repo, there are multiple
projects in the repo. So the repo looks like this

---SVN Root --- Folder(Proj1) ---- Files
	\
	 ---- Folder(Proj2) --- Trunk - Files
	|	       \
	|		- Branch - Files
	|		|
	|		- Tag - ...
	|
	|- Proj3 - Files
	|- Proj4 - Trunk
		 |-Branch
		 | - Tag

The question is, is there a way I can get Git SVN to understand and
replicate this layout in a git repo? I don't mind if I have to import the
entire repo again into git. 

Thanks,
Albert
