If you haven't use those options back then, then what was the svn repo
structure - no trunk, just main?
Did you change the structure now?

If you git-svn fetch from that new structure then all your new branches
etc. will show up as subdirectories, which is most certainly not what
you want.

So, what was the structure in svn like before, and have your
contributors based their branches on the mis-imported new structure already?
