I used something along these lines:

  git filter-branch -f --tree-filter \
    'test -e my/new/dir || mkdir -p my/new/dir
      find . -mindepth 1 -maxdepth 1 \
      -type d -path ./my -prune -o -print \
      | xargs -n 30 mv -t ./my/new/dir' master 

More background on how it works [1] if you want.
