Yes, that's pretty easy; you just have to do a squash merge to eliminate 
the nonlinear history. Assuming the svn head is called "trunk" and your 
head is called "myhead":

# start with the svn head
git checkout -b trunk tempbranch
# bring in all the changes from your branch
git merge --squash myhead
# commit with whatever message you want
git commit
# and ship it up to svn land
git svn dcommit
